Cavity-enhanced detection of magnetic orders in lattice spin models
arXiv:0901.1372 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.79.013630
Abstract
We develop a general scheme for detecting spin correlations inside a two-component lattice gas of bosonic atoms, stimulated by the recent theoretical and experimental advances on analogous systems for a single component quantum gas. Within a linearized theory for the transmission spectra of the cavity mode field, different magnetic phases of a two-component (spin 1/2) lattice bosons become clearly distinguishable. In the Mott-insulating (MI) state with unit filling for the two-component lattice bosons, three different phases: antiferromagnetic, ferromagnetic, and the XY phases are found to be associated with drastically different cavity photon numbers. Our suggested study can be straightforwardly implemented with current cold atom experiments.
