Formation of Vector Solitary waves with Mixed Dispersion in Bose-Einstein Condensates

Published Jun 14, 2005• 0 citations

Abstract

We demonstrate the existence of a new class of two-component vector solitary waves in which dispersion coefficients have of opposite signs. Stability is achieved by inclusion of an additional linear coupling between the vector components that counterbalances the instability produced by the mixed dispersion and the non-linearity. In addition, we demonstrate that these solutions are experimentally observable as gap vector solitons in Bose-Einstein condensates located in oscillating optical lattices. The proposed experiment falls well within the standard experimental procedures for generating gap solitons in today's laboratories.

Generating vector solitary waves of Bose-Einstein Condensates in optical lattices

Luis Plaja, Julio San Román

We describe the process of formation of vector solitary waves in Bose-Einstein Condensates located in optical lattices. The two components of the vector correspond to the envelope of the condensate mean field wavefunction in the Wannier basis of the first and second bands.

Vector vortex solitons in two-component Bose–Einstein condensates with modulated nonlinearities and a harmonic trap

Si-Liu Xu, Wang Ze-qiang, Jun-Rong He +2 more

We introduce vector solitary waves in two-component Bose–Einstein condensates with spatially modulated nonlinearity coefficients and a harmonic trapping potential. Using the self-similarity method, novel vector solitary waves are built with the help of Whittaker function, including multipole solutions and necklace rings. The stability of vortex soliton pairs is examined by direct numerical simulation; the results show that a new class of stable low-order vortex soliton pairs with n = 2 and m ≤ 3 can be supported by the spatially modulated interaction in the harmonic trap. Higher order vector-vortex soliton is found unstable over prolonged distances.

Modulation instability and solitary-wave formation in two-component Bose-Einstein condensates

Kenichi Kasamatsu, Makoto Tsubota

We investigate nonlinear dynamics induced by the modulation instability of a two-component mixture in an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate. The nonlinear dynamics is examined using numerical simulations of the time-dependent coupled Gross-Pitaevskii equations. The unstable modulation grows from initially miscible condensates into various types of vector solitary waves, depending on the combinations of the sign of the coupling constants (intracomponent and intercomponent). We discuss the detailed features of the modulation instability, dynamics of solitary wave formation, and an analogy with the collapsing dynamics in a single-component condensate with attractive interactions.

Stability properties of vector solitons in two-component Bose—Einstein condensates with tunable interactions

Xiao-Fei Zhang, Pei Zhang, Wan-Quan He +1 more

By using a unified theory of the formation of various types of vector-solitons in two-component Bose—Einstein condensates with tunable interactions, we obtain a family of exact vector-soliton solutions for the coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations. Moreover, the Bogoliubov equation shows that there exists stable dark soliton in specific situations. Our results open up new ways in considerable experimental interest for the quantum control of multi-component Bose—Einstein condensates.

Systematic solitary waves from their linear limits in two-component Bose–Einstein condensates with unequal dispersion coefficients

Wenlong Wang

Abstract We systematically construct vector solitary waves in harmonically trapped one-dimensional two-component Bose–Einstein condensates with unequal dispersion coefficients by a numerical continuation in chemical potentials from the respective analytic low-density linear limits to the high-density nonlinear Thomas-Fermi regime. The main feature of the linear states herein is that the component with the larger quantum number has instead a smaller linear eigenenergy, enabled by suitable unequal dispersion coefficients, leading to new series of solutions compared with the states similarly obtained in the equal dispersion setting. Particularly, the lowest-lying series gives the well-known dark-anti-dark waves, and the second series yields the dark-multi-dark states, and the following series become progressively more complex in their wave structures. The Bogoliubov-de Gennes spectra analysis shows that most of these states bear unstable modes, but they can be long-lived and remarkably all of them can be fully stabilized in suitable parameter regimes.

Vector gap solitons of spin-orbit-coupled Bose-Einstein condensate in honeycomb optical lattices

Hongjuan Meng, Jing Wang, Xiaobei Fan +5 more

The combination of the two hot topics of spin-orbit coupling and honeycomb lattices leads to the appearance of fascinating issues. In this paper, we investigate the existence and stability of vector gap solitons of spin-orbit-coupled Bose-Einstein condensates loaded in honeycomb optical lattices. The existence and stability of vector gap solitons are highly sensitive to the properties of interspin and intraspin atomic interaction. We numerically obtain the parametric dependence of the existence of vector gap solitons both in the semi-infinite gap and in the first gap. Since only dynamically stable localized modes in nonlinear systems are likely to be generated and observed in experiments, we examine the stability of the vector gap solitons by using the direct evolution dynamics, and obtain the phase diagram of stable and unstable vector gap solitons on the parameter plane of interspin and intraspin atomic interactions.
