In this paper, the stochastic series expansion quantum Monte Carlo method is employed to investigate the thermodynamic properties of hardcore Bose-Hubbard model in two-dimensional space. The two-dimensional hardcore Bose-Hubbard model can be mapped into the two-dimensional antiferromagnetic quasi-Heisenberg model under transform of bosonic operators. There is an additional term which is proportional to the total number of sites compared with real Heisenberg model and it is difficult for simulation. Using a nonlocal operator-loop update, it allows one to simulate thousands of sites. Our simulation results show that, first, energy decreases with the increase of density of particles in a range from 0 to 0.5, and finally approaches to a fixed value. Moreover, with the size of square lattice increasing, energy also increases. Second, when we fix the system size, energy and magnetization increase with temperature, but not with of chemical potential. When we increase the system size, energy increases, while, the magnetization decreases. Third, specific heat is independent of chemical potential, but it dramatically increases with temperature and approaches to a peak, then decreases slowly. According to Landau theory of superfluidity, the tends of curve for energy and specific heat fit the research of He II in the Landau two-fluid model. Fourth, different square lattice linear system sizes have a little influence on tiny differences to the reciprocal of uniform susceptibility. There are small fluctuations in a range from 0 to 0.5(J/kB), where J is the coupling energy, kB is the Boltzmann constant, but the reciprocal of uniform susceptibility increases with temperature increasing in a range from 0.5 to 2(J/kB). The tends of curve are similar to those of Kondo effect.
We theoretically investigate the dynamic processes of solid harmonics generation using the one-dimensional time-dependent density functional theory and the three-band recollision model. Compared with gas harmonics, more quantum paths contribute to the generation of solid harmonics. Moreover, the number of quantum paths further increases as the laser vector potential increases. Analysis indicates that the multiple velocity reversals of electrons play an important role in the generation of solid harmonics, which induces multiple collisions of electrons and holes and forms more quantum paths. Besides, we find that the dephasing effect cannot reduce the number of quantum paths. Finally, the relationship between harmonic order and the electron migration distance is also studied. It is found that there is no unified dependence between harmonic order and the electron migration distance because this relationship is path dependent. Our work can contribute to a considerable understanding of the recollision dynamics of solid harmonic generation, which provides the possibility of manipulating the generation of solid harmonics in the future.
Using Crank–Nicolson method, we calculate ground state wave functions of two-component dipolar Bose–Einstein condensates (BECs) and show that, due to dipole–dipole interaction (DDI), the condensate mixture displays anisotropic phase separation. The effects of DDI, inter-component s-wave scattering, strength of trap potential and particle numbers on the density profiles are investigated. Three types of two-component profiles are present, first cigar, along z-axis and concentric torus, second pancake (or blood cell), in xy-plane, and two non-uniform ellipsoid, separated by the pancake and third two dumbbell shapes.
We theoretically investigate high-order harmonic generation (HHG) from solids in two-color fields. It is found that under the premise of maintaining the same amplitude, the intensity of the second plateau can be enhanced by two to three orders in a proper two-color field compared with the result in the monochromatic field with the same frequency as the driving pulse of the two-color field. This can be attributed to the fact that most excited electrons can be driven to the top of the first conduction band due to the larger vector potential of the two-color fields, which leads to the higher electron population of upper conduction bands. Moreover, we also find that isolated attosecond pulses can be generated from solids by choosing a proper two-color field that allows the electrons to reach the top of the first conduction band only once. This work provides a promising method for extending the range of solid HHG spectra in experiments.
We study the fractional quantum Hall states in the tilted magnetic field. A many-particle wavefunction of the ground state, which is similar to that of Laughlin's, is constructed in the Landau gauge. We show that in the limit of thermodynamics, the concept of composite fermion is still valid in presence of the in-plane field.
