Stability and Population Oscillations in a Spin-Orbit Coupled Bose-Einstein Condensate

Qiuping Zhu, C. Kong

In this paper, we have investigated the stability and population oscillations in a spin–orbit coupled Bose–Einstein condensate. For the time-independent system parameters, the stability of the steady-state solutions was analyzed with the linear stability theorem. For the asymmetric case, we demonstrated that a larger relative energy can enhance macroscopic quantum self-trapping. A larger relative energy or a stronger population transfer strength can assist or suppress the tunneling rate, depending on the initial population. Finally, the chaotic parameter regions and the chaotic atomic tunneling between two periodically driven Bose–Einstein condensates have been investigated. The results reveal that chaos can notably enhance the tunneling rate. The results could be significant in the quantum transport of the spin–orbit coupled cold-atom system.

Controlling chaotic spin-motion entanglement of ultracold atoms via spin-orbit coupling

Chao Kong, Hao Chen, Chunlai Li +1 more

We study the spatially chaoticity-dependent spin-motion entanglement of a spin-orbit (SO) coupled Bose-Einstein condensate with a source of ultracold atoms held in an optical superlattice. In the case of phase synchronization, we analytically demonstrate that (a) the SO coupling (SOC) leads to the generation of spin-motion entanglement; (b) the area of the high-chaoticity parameter region inversely relates to the SOC strength which renormalizes the chemical potential; and (c) the high-chaoticity is associated with the lower chemical potential and the larger ratio of the short-lattice depth to the longer-lattice depth. Then, we numerically generate the Poincaré sections to pinpoint that the chaos probability is enhanced with the decrease in the SOC strength and/or the spin-dependent current components. The existence of chaos is confirmed by computing the corresponding largest Lyapunov exponents. For an appropriate lattice depth ratio, the complete stop of one of (or both) the current components is related to the full chaoticity. The results mean that the weak SOC and/or the small current components can enhance the chaoticity. Based on the insensitivity of chaos probability to initial conditions, we propose a feasible scheme to manipulate the ensemble of chaotic spin-motion entangled states, which may be useful in coherent atom optics with chaotic atom transport.
