Abstract

Spinor Bose condensates loaded in optical lattices have a rich phase diagram characterized by different magnetic order. Here we apply the density matrix renormalization group to accurately determine the phase diagram for spin-1 bosons loaded on a one-dimensional lattice. The Mott lobes present an even or odd asymmetry associated to the boson filling. We show that for odd fillings the insulating phase is always in a dimerized state. The results obtained in this work are also relevant for the determination of the ground state phase diagram of the S = 1 Heisenberg model with biquadratic interaction.

Spinor Bose condensates loaded in optical lattices have a rich phase diagram characterized by different magnetic order. In this work we evaluated the phase boundary between the Mott insulator and the superfluid phase by means of the density matrix renormalization group. Furthermore, we studied the properties of the insulating phase for odd fillings. The results obtained in this work are also relevant for the determination of the ground state phase diagram of the S = 1 Heisenberg model with biquadratic interaction.

Spinful bosons in an optical lattice

Sara Bergkvist, Ian P. McCulloch, Anders Rosengren

We analyze the behavior of cold spin-1 particles with antiferromagnetic interactions in a one-dimensional optical lattice using density matrix renormalization group calculations. Correlation functions and the dimerization are shown and we also present results for the energy gap between ground state and the spin excited states. We confirm the anticipated phase diagram, with Mott-insulating regions of alternating dimerized $S=1$ chains for odd particle density versus on-site singlets for even density. We find no evidence for any additional ordered phases in the physically accessible region, however for sufficiently large spin interaction, on-site singlet pairs dominate leading, for odd density, to a breakdown of the Mott insulator or, for even density, a real-space singlet superfluid.

Interacting spin-1 bosons in a two-dimensional optical lattice

Laurent de Forges de Parny, F. Hébert, V. G. Rousseau +1 more

We study, using quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations, the ground state properties of spin-1 bosons trapped in a square optical lattice. The phase diagram is characterized by the mobility of the particles (Mott insulating or superfluid phase) and by their magnetic properties. For ferromagnetic on-site interactions, the whole phase diagram is ferromagnetic and the Mott insulators-superfluid phase transitions are second order. For antiferromagnetic on-site interactions, spin nematic order is found in the odd Mott lobes and in the superfluid phase. Furthermore, the superfluid-insulator phase transition is first or second order depending on whether the density in the Mott is even or odd. Inside the even Mott lobes we observe a singlet-to-nematic transition for certain values of the interactions. This transition appears to be first order.

Disordered spinor Bose-Hubbard model

Mateusz Łącki, Simone Paganelli, V. Ahufinger +2 more

We study the zero-temperature phase diagram of the disordered spin-$1$ Bose-Hubbard model in a two-dimensional square lattice. To this aim, we use a mean-field Gutzwiller ansatz and a probabilistic mean-field perturbation theory. The spin interaction induces two different regimes, corresponding to a ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic order. In the ferromagnetic case, the introduction of disorder reproduces analogous features of the disordered scalar Bose-Hubbard model, consisting in the formation of a Bose glass phase between Mott insulator lobes. In the antiferromagnetic regime, the phase diagram differs more from the scalar case. Disorder in the chemical potential can lead to the disappearance of Mott insulator lobes with an odd-integer filling factor and, for sufficiently strong spin coupling, to Bose glass of singlets between even-filling Mott insulator lobes. Disorder in the spinor coupling parameter results in the appearance of a Bose glass phase only between the $n$ and the $n+1$ lobes for $n$ odd. Disorder in the scalar Hubbard interaction inhibits Mott insulator regions for occupation larger than a critical value.

Mott lobes evolution of the spin-1 Bose-Hubbard model

A. F. Hincapie-F, R Franco, Jereson Silva-Valencia

We study spin-1 bosons confined in a one-dimensional optical lattice, taking into consideration both ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic interaction. Using the density matrix renormalization group, we determine the phase diagram for the two firsts lobes and report the evolution of the first and second Mott lobes with respect to the spin-exchange interaction parameter ( U 2 ). We determine that for the antiferromagnetic case, the first lobe is suppressed while the second grows as | U 2 | increases. For the ferromagnetic case, the first and second Mott lobes are suppressed by the spin-exchange interaction parameter. We propose an expresion to describe the evolution of the critical point with the increase in | U 2 | for both cases.

Phase diagram of spin- 12 bosons in a one-dimensional optical lattice

Laurent de Forges de Parny, M. Traynard, F. Hébert +3 more

Systems of two coupled bosonic species are studied using mean field theory and the quantum Monte Carlo method. The phase diagram is characterized on the basis of both the mobility of the particles (Mott insulating or superfluid) and whether or not the system is magnetic (different populations for the two species). The phase diagram is shown to be population balanced for negative spin-dependent interactions, regardless of whether it is insulating or superfluid. For positive spin-dependent interactions, the superfluid phase is always polarized, and the two populations are imbalanced. However, the Mott-insulating phase with even commensurate filling always has balanced populations. In contrast, the Mott phase with odd commensurate filling has balanced populations in a very strong interaction and polarizes as the interaction gets weaker while still in the Mott phase.
