The role of anisotropy in dipolar bosons in triple-well potentials (1311.4426v4)
Published 18 Nov 2013 in cond-mat.quant-gas
Abstract: Mesoscopic samples of polarized dipolar atoms confined in three spatially separated traps conform an extended Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian in which different quantum phases appear depending on the competition between tunneling, on-site and long range inter-site dipole-dipole interactions. Here, by choosing an appropriate configuration of triple-wells, we analyze the role played by the anisotropic character inherent to the dipolar interaction in the phase diagram of the system. We further characterize the different phases as well as their boundaries by means of their entanglement properties.
