Kondo metal of fermionic atoms in anisotropic triangular optical lattice    [PDF]

Baoan, Xiaozhong Zhang, Wu-Ming Liu
Quantum phase transition of fermionic atoms in anisotropic triangular optical lattice was investigated by dynamical cluster approximation combining with continuous time quantum Monte Carlo algorithm. The temperature-interaction phase diagram for different hoping terms and the competition between the anisotropic parameter and interaction is presented. Our results show that the system undergoes Mott transition from Fermi liquid to Mott insulator while the repulsive interaction reach the critical value. The Kondo metal characterized by Kondo peak in the density of states is found in this systems and the pseudogap are suppressed at low temperature due to the Kondo effect. We also propose a feasible experiment protocol to observe these phenomenon in the anisotropic triangular optical lattice with the cold atoms, in which the hoping terms can be varied by the lattice depth and the atomic interaction can be adjusted via Feshbach resonance.
