Bosons in a two-dimensional bichromatic quasiperiodic potential: Analysis of the disorder in the Bose-Hubbard parameters and phase diagrams

Abstract: Experimental realizations of disorder in optical lattices generate a distribution of the Bose-Hubbard (BH) parameters, like on-site potentials, hopping strengths, and interaction energies. We analyze this distribution for bosons in a two-dimensional bichromatic quasiperiodic potential by determining the generalized Wannier functions and calculating the corresponding BH parameters. Using a local mean-field cluster analysis, we study the effect of the corresponding disorder on the phase diagrams. We find a subst… Show more

“…In the incommensurate case, for λ = λ 0 (1 − ) with 1 our LMF calculation combined with a SF cluster analysis [29,35] reveals a much richer phase diagram than predicted by conventional mean-field theory [18]: In addition to MI, SF z , and SF phases, we could identify also an isotropic and striped superglass (SG) phase, which is characterised by an aperiodic (glassy) density modulation and isotropic or striped superfluid (off-diagonal) order. The striped SG regions are characterized by superfluid stripes in z direction, implying off-diagonal order (i.e., phase coherence) along these stripes.…”

“…We analyze the phase diagram emerging from the Hamiltonian (1) using local mean field (LMF) theory [34] combined with a superfluid cluster analysis [29,35]. Within this framework, we define the so-called local SF parameter by equation ψ i = Ø[i]a , which has to be determined self-consistently, being the expectation value of operator Ø[i]a taken over the ground state of the LMF Hamiltonian ĤMF…”

“…This behavior is analogous to the potential generated by the superposition of two incommensurate optical lattices [85] which has been used for generating controllable disordered potential, allowing the observation of Anderson localization and new quantum phases (Bose glass) in ultracold gases [86,87]. Here, we move a step further and we create synthetic random interactions between the atoms, generalizing the Anderson model where disorder affects only the local potential and/or the tunneling amplitude [88,89].…”
