The model is a variation of the extended Bose-Hubbard model and apt to study the quantum phases arising from the variation in the tilt angle θ of the dipolar bosons. At low tilt angles, 0°≤θ 25°, the ground states of the system are phases with checkerboard order, which can be either checkerboard supersolids or checkerboard density waves. For high tilt angles, 35° θ 55°, phases with striped order of the supersolid or density wave are preferred. In the intermediate domain, 25° θ 35°, an emulsion or superfluid phase intervenes the transition between the checkerboard and the striped phases. The attractive interaction dominates at θ 55°, which renders the system unstable, and there is a density collapse. For our studies we use Gutzwiller mean-field theory to obtain the quantum phases and the phase boundaries. In addition, we calculate the phase boundaries between an incompressible and a compressible phase of the system by considering second-order perturbation analysis of the mean-field theory. The analytical results, where applicable, are in excellent agreement with the numerical results. In our study, the incompressible phases have an average occupancy per site ρ≤1, but the compressible phases can have ρ>1.falseArticlehttps://arxiv.org/pdf/1906.074832469993425 November 201927053623arJournal24
