Abstract:
We study the quantum phase transitions in a two component Bose mixture in a one-dimensional optical lattice. The calculations have been performed in the framework of the extended Bose-Hubbard model using the finite size density matrix renormalization group method. We obtain different phase transitions for the system for integer filling. When the interspecies on-site and the nearest-neighbor interactions are larger than the intraspecies on-site and also the nearest-neighbor interaction, the system exhibits a phase separated charge-density-wave order that is characterized by the two species being spatially separated and existing in the density-wave phases.
