Evolution of Coherence During Ramps Across the Mott-Superfluid Phase Boundary

الأصل · EN

We calculate how correlations in a Bose lattice gas grow during a finite speed ramp from the Mott to the Superfluid regime. We use an interacting doublon-holon model, applying a mean-field approach for implementing hard-core constraints between these degrees of freedom. Our solutions are valid in any dimension, and agree with experimental results and with DMRG calculations in one dimension. We find that the final energy density of the system drops quickly with increased ramp time for ramps shorter than one hopping time, Jτramp 1. For longer ramps, the final energy density depends only weakly on ramp speed. We calculate the effects of inelastic light scattering during such ramps.
