Dimensional crossover in the superfluid-supersolid quantum phase transition
arXiv:2111.14541 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevX.12.021019
Abstract
We assess experimentally and theoretically the character of the superfluid-supersolid quantum phase transition recently discovered in trapped dipolar quantum gases. We find that one-row supersolids can have already two types of phase transitions, discontinuous and continuous, that are reminiscent of the first- and second-order transitions predicted in the thermodynamic limit in 2D and 1D, respectively. The smooth crossover between the two regimes is peculiar to supersolids and can be controlled via the transverse confinement and the atom number. We justify our observations on the general ground of the Landau theory of phase transitions. The quasi-adiabatic crossing of a continuous phase transition opens new directions of investigation for supersolids.
