Localization of Two-Component Bose-Einstein Condensates in Optical Lattices

arXiv:cond-mat/0309127 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.92.180405

Abstract

We reveal underlying principles of nonlinear localization of a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate loaded into a one-dimensional optical lattice. Our theory shows that spin-dependent optical lattices can be used to manipulate both the type and magnitude of nonlinear interaction between the ultracold atomic species and to observe nontrivial two-componentnlocalized states of a condensate in both bands and gaps of the matter-wave band-gap structure.
