Abstract
We study quantum phases of ultracold bosonic atoms in a two-dimensional optical superlattice. The extended Bose–Hubbard model derived from the system of ultracold bosonic atoms in an optical superlattice is solved numerically with the Gutzwiller approach. We find that the modulated superfluid (MS), Mott-insulator (MI) and density-wave (DW) phases appear in some regimes of parameters. The experimental detection of the first-order correlations and the second-order correlations of different quantum phases with time-of-flight and noise-correlation techniques is proposed.
