| Popis: | We theoretically investigate supersolidity in three-dimensional dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates. We focus on the role of trap geometry in determining the dimensionality of the resulting droplet arrays, which range from one-dimensional to zigzag, through to two-dimensional supersolids in circular traps. Supersolidity is well established in one-dimensional arrays, and may be just as favorable in two-dimensional arrays provided that one appropriately scales the atom number to the trap volume. We develop a tractable variational model--which we benchmark against full numerical simulations--and use it to study droplet crystals and their excitations. We also outline how exotic ring and stripe states may be created with experimentally-feasible parameters. Our work paves the way for future studies of two-dimensional dipolar supersolids in realistic settings. 9 pages, 4 figures |
