Signature of Supersolidity in a Driven Cubic-Quartic Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation

Abstract

We present analytical solution, which is periodic in nature, for a driven cubic-quartic nonlinear Schrödinger equation (DCQNLSE) placed in a bi-chromatic optical lattice. The solution indicates the creation of density wave. Since, beyond mean-field contribution in quasi one dimensional and one-dimensional geometry differs on the even exponents of the nonlinearity thus we extend our analysis towards quadratic-cubic-quartic and quadratic-cubic nonlinearities as well. Later, we study the dynamics of DCQNLSE. Our study indicates the existence of stripe phase along with considerable phase coherence. These findings allow us to comment on the possible emergence of supersolid phase in a condensate.
