Abstract
We study elementary excitations in a Floquet-engineered spin-1 BEC with spin–orbit coupling, which can be realized by periodically driving the quadratic Zeeman shift. We calculate the excitation spectrum of the plane-wave phase, the zero-momentum phase, and the stripe phase, as well as the corresponding response function and static structure factor. In special, we find that two roton modes appear in the lowest two excitation bands of the stripe phase, which are tunable by changing the driving parameters. The phase transition between different phases can be identified by the sound velocity of these phases. We also investigate spin dynamics in such a system, which strongly depend on the driving parameter.
