报告摘要

Superfluid with spontaneous translation symmetry breaking, usually known as supersolid, has been attracting intense attention in the field of ultracold atomic physics. In this paper, we predict abundant supersolid phases in Bose-Einstein condensates induced by the combination of Rashba spin-orbit coupling and Rydberg dressing. We reveal that a dimensionless number, which is defined as the product of the Rashba-ring radius in momentum space and the blockade radius in real space, plays a crucial role in determining the number of the condensation points and their arrangement, and thus the structure of supersolid. Surprisingly, we find that exotic topological entities, such as discrete vortices with a broken azimuthal invariance and high-order vortices characterized by a nonzero radial quantum number, can be stabilized in supersolid crystal cells by spin-orbit coupling, which are generally inaccessible in a conventional superfluid.
