Probing the FFLO phase by double occupancy modulation spectroscopy

Quantum Gases 2010-09-15 v1 Superconductivity

Abstract

We propose here that for a spin-imbalanced two-component attractive Fermi gas loaded in a 1D optical lattice in presence of an harmonic confining potential, the observation of the change in the double occupancy after a lattice depth modulation can provide clear evidence of the Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) phase. Simulating the time evolution of the system, we can characterize the double occupancy spectrum for different initial conditions, relating its features to the FFLO wavevector qq. In particular, the narrowing of the width of the spectrum can be related, through Bethe-ansatz equations in the strongly interacting limit, to the FFLO wavevector qq.
