Phase diagram of anisotropic boson t-J model

Abstract

We have studied by Quantum Monte Carlo simulations the low temperature phase diagram of a mixture of isotopic, hard core bosons, described by the t-Jz-Jperp model, with Jperp=a Jz. Coexistence of superfluid hole-rich and insulating, antiferromagnetically ordered hole-free phases is observed at sufficiently low hole density, for any a < 1. A two-component checkerboard supersolid phase is not observed. The experimental relevance and possible broader implications of these findings are discussed.
