Condensate localization in a quasi-periodic structure

We propose a set-up of optical laser beams by which one may realize a quasi-one-dimensional Fibonacci array of potential wells for a Bose-Einstein condensate. We use a Bose-Hubbard tight-binding model to evaluate the transport of superfluid Rb87 atoms driven by a constant force through such an array. We show that the minigaps that are generated in the spectral density-of-states by the quasi-periodic disorder give rise to prominent localization effects, which can be observed by measuring the tunnel output of matter into vacuum as a function of the intensity of the applied force.

Matter-wave interferometry in periodic and quasi-periodic arrays

We calculate within a Bose-Hubbard tight-binding model the matter-wave flow driven by a constant force through a Bose-Einstein condensate of Rb 87 atoms in various types of quasi-onedimensional arrays of potential wells. Interference patterns are obtained when beam splitting is induced by creating energy minigaps either through period doubling or through quasi-periodicity governed by the Fibonacci series. The generation of such condensate modulations by means of optical-laser structures is also discussed.
