Study of unconventional superfluid phases and the phase dynamics in spin-orbit coupled bose system
Abstract
We study the phase distribution and its dynamics in spin-orbit coupled two component ultracold Bosons for finite size system. Using an inhomogeneous meanfield analysis we demonstrate how phase distribution evolves as we tune the spin-orbit coupling and , the spin-independent hopping. For we find the homogeneous superfluid phase. As we increase , differences in the phases of the order parameter grows leading to twisted superfluid phase. For competing orderings in the phase distribution is observed. At large limit a Ferro-Magnetic stripe ordering appears along the diagonal. We explain that this is due to the frustration bought in by the spin-orbit interaction. Isolated vortex formation is also shown to appear. We also investigate the possible collective modes. In deep superfluid regime we derive the equation of motion for the phases following a semi-classical approximation. Imaginary frequencies indicating the damped modes are seen to appear and the dynamics of lowest normal modes are discussed.
