One-dimensional phase transitions in a two-dimensional optical lattice
نویسندگان
چکیده
A phase transition for bosonic atoms in a two-dimensional anisotropic optical lattice is considered. If the tunnelling rates in two directions are different, the system can undergo a transition between a two-dimensional superfluid and a one-dimensional Mott insulating array of strongly coupled tubes. The connection to other lattice models is exploited in order to better understand the phase transition. Critical properties are obtained using quantum Monte Carlo calculations. These critical properties are related to correlation properties of the bosons and a criterion for commensurate filling is established. PACS. 05.30.Jp , 03.75.Lm, 67.90.+z

We study the phase structure of two dimensional pure lattice gauge theory with a Chern term. The symmetry groups are non-Abelian, finite and disconnected sub-groups of SU(3). Since the action is imaginary it introduces a rich phase structure compared to the originally trivial two dimensional pure gauge theory. The Z3 group is the center of these groups and the result shows that if we use one ...
متن کاملA Novel Structure for Optical Channel Drop Filter using Two-Dimensional Photonic Crystals with Square Lattice
In the present paper a novel structure for optical channel drop filter (CDF) based on photonic crystal ring resonator with circular core has been proposed. In order to design the proposed CDF, the plan wave expansion (PWE) method is applied for calculation of band structure and photonic band gap while the transmission characteristics of proposed CDF have been calculated using the finite differe...
متن کاملQuantum computation with a one-dimensional optical lattice.
We present an economical dynamical control scheme to perform quantum computation on a one-dimensional optical lattice, where each atom encodes one qubit. The model is based on atom tunneling transitions between neighboring sites of the lattice. They can be activated by external laser beams resulting in a two-qubit phase gate or in an exchange interaction. A realization of the Toffoli gate is pr...
متن کاملHeat Transfer Enhancement of Al2O3–H2O Nanofluid Free Convection in Two-Phase Flow with Internal Heat Generation Using Two Dimensional Lattice Boltzmann Method
A two-phase lattice Boltzmann model considering the interaction forces of nanofluid has been developed in this paper. It is applied to investigate the flow and natural convection heat transfer of Al2O3–H2O nanofluid in an enclosure containing internal heat generation. To understand the heat transfer enhancement mechanism of the nanofluid flow from the particle level, the lattice Boltzmann metho...
متن کاملCommensurate two-component bosons in an optical lattice: ground state phase diagram.
Two sorts of bosons in an optical lattice at commensurate filling factors can form five stable super-fluid and insulating ground states with rich and nontrivial phase diagram. The structure of the ground state diagram is established by mapping a d-dimensional quantum system onto a (d+1)-dimensional classical loop-current model and Monte Carlo (MC) simulations of the latter. Surprisingly, the qu...
