Density-wave-type supersolid of two-dimensional tilted dipolar bosons

We predict a stable density-wave-type supersolid phase of a dilute gas of tilted dipolar bosons in a two-dimensional (2D) geometry. This many-body phase is manifested by the formation of the stripe pattern and elasticity coexisting together with the Bose-Einstein condensation and superfluidity at zero temperature. With the increasing of the tilting angle the type of the gas-supersolid transition changes from the first order to the second-order one despite the 2D character of the system, whereas the anisotropy and many-body stabilizing interactions play crucial roles. Our approach is based on the numerical analysis of the phase diagram using the simulated annealing method for a free-energy functional. The predicted supersolid effect can be realized in a variety of experimental setups ranging from excitons in heterostructures to cold atoms and polar molecules in optical potentials.
