Properties of dirty bosons in disordered optical lattices

Ushnish Ray

The study of the disordered Bose-Hubbard model is key to understanding the interplay of disorder and interactions. Despite many studies with uniform diagonal disorder, few have inquired into experimental realizations with an additional correlated off-diagonal disorder. The presence of a trap and finite temperature effects in experiments lead to multiple do- mains of the Superfluid, Mott-Insulator/normal and the Bose-Glass phase. Previous studies using approximate theories produced results that are not in accordance with experiments. Stochastic Series Expansion is a finite temperature technique that can solve Bosonic lattice Hamiltonians exactly for large systems. Here, studies are performed for an extensive range of parameters using disorder distributions that are similar to experiments. Insights are first acquired by studying trap-free situations. Constant density calculations show that, although the qualitative features of the phase diagram remain robust between speckle disorder and uniform box disorder, there are quantitative differences. Studies of the Bose-glass phase ex- plicitly show that it is composed of superfluid puddles that are stable to finite temperature effects for large temperature ranges. Finite temperature behavior of a strongly correlated sys- tem reveals that at unit filling, the transition temperature of the superfluid is increased due to the addition of disorder. Inquires are then extended to discern the properties of trapped systems. Extensive calculations show that domain-like structures that develop can be rig- orously demarcated using the single-particle eigenstates extracted from the single-particle density matrix. Observables are calculated for the system at the single-site and global scales, showing that intermediate length scales provide the correct description of the physics of the domains in these systems. These techniques are used to conclusively show the possibility of the re-entrant superfluid that should be accessible to experiments. The temperature de- pendence of the re-entrant domain is explicitly calculated to be within experimental limits provided interactions are not too large. Comparisons with the local density approximation show reasonable agreement at low disorder strengths. At large disorder strengths there can be quantitative errors and can also result in qualitative errors. The phase diagram due to speckle disorder is presented for a range of values that are readily accessible to experiments. It is quantitatively shown that the effects of off-diagonal disorder are minimal. The superfluid remains unaffected despite large disorder in the tunneling term. Full scale ab initio calcu- lations of the largest trapped disordered systems to date are performed in order to identify the superfluid-Bose-glass phase boundary in collaboration with experiments. Results show remarkable agreement, but there are open questions with regards to the possibility of glassy dynamics.

Strong-coupling mean-field and classical percolation approach to produce the phase diagram of disordered Bose–Hubbard model at fixed n = 1 filling

Manjari Gupta

Abstract We perform strong-coupling mean-field along with classical percolation analysis to produce the phase diagram of disordered Bose–Hubbard model with chemical potential disorder in two dimensional square lattice. The phase diagram in the disorder strength (Δ) and the on-site repulsion (U), for two and three dimensional system at fixed n = 1 filling show interesting re-entrant superfluid phase sandwiched between Bose-glass phases, as observed by the previous QMC results. We produce the phase diagram exhibiting the re-entrant phenomenon as well as phenomenologically demonstrate the robustness of the re-entrant phenomena within this method. We also discuss the importance of the method and applicability in further analysis of the same phase diagram.

Atomic Bose and Anderson Glasses in Optical Lattices

Bogdan Damski, Jakub Zakrzewski, Luis Santos +2 more

An ultracold atomic Bose gas in an optical lattice is shown to provide an ideal system for the controlled analysis of disordered Bose lattice gases. This goal may be easily achieved under the current experimental conditions by introducing a pseudorandom potential created by a second additional lattice or, alternatively, by placing a speckle pattern on the main lattice. We show that, for a noncommensurable filling factor, in the strong-interaction limit, a controlled growing of the disorder drives a dynamical transition from superfluid to Bose-glass phase. Similarly, in the weak interaction limit, a dynamical transition from superfluid to Anderson-glass phase may be observed. In both regimes, we show that even very low-intensity disorder-inducing lasers cause large modifications of the superfluid fraction of the system.
