Abstract

A driven-dissipative system is considered, consisting of an atomic Bose-Einstein condensates loaded into a 2D Hubbard lattice and coupled to a single mode of an optical cavity. Due to the interplay between strong, repulsive atomic interaction and the atom-cavity coupling, the system exhibits several phases of atoms and photons including the atomic superfluid (SF) and supersolid (SS). The dynamical behavior of the system, where dissipation is included by means of Lindblad master equation formalism. Due to the discontinuous nature of the Dicke transition for strong atomic repulsion, extended co-existence region of different phases are found. The resulting switching dynamics are investigated, particularly between the coexisting SF and SS phases, which eventually becomes damped by the dissipation.
