Layers of cold dipolar molecules in the harmonic approximation

Abstract: We consider the N -body problem in a layered geometry containing cold polar molecules with dipole moments that are polarized perpendicular to the layers. A harmonic approximation is used to simplify the Hamiltonian and bound state properties of the two-body inter-layer dipolar potential are used to adjust this effective interaction. To model the intra-layer repulsion of the polar molecules, we introduce a repulsive inter-molecule harmonic potential and discuss how its strength can be related to the real dipola… Show more

“…The spectrum of collective density excitations will be strongly modified by the inter-chain dynamics and intra-chain modes, being in strong dependence with variation of interlayer distance and a strength of interlayer coupling. 21 Similar to the predictions for a single 2D layer, 22-24 dipolar bilayer and multilayers are expected to undergo a crystallization transition at high densities. 25 All these possibilities, existing in multilayers, form an interesting topic for future analyses.…”

“…These problems can be overcome in low-dimensional geometries where the dipolar particles are confined to either twodimensional (2D) planes or one-dimensional (1D) tubes with and without the presence of lattice potentials. A number of interesting predictions have been made for the phases of system with dipolar interactions, including exotic superfluids [15][16][17][18][19] , Luttinger liquids [20][21][22][23][24][25] , Mott insulators 26,27 , interlayer pairing [28][29][30][31] , non-trivial quantum critical points 32,33 , modified confinement-induced resonances [34][35][36][37] , roton modes and stripe instabilities [38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45] , and crystallization [46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54] , as well as formation of chain complexes [55][56][57][58][59][60]…”
