Quantum Fluids of Self-Assembled Chains of Polar Molecules
Quantum Fluids of Self-Assembled Chains of Polar Molecules
We study polar molecules in a stack of strongly confined pancake traps. When dipole moments point perpendicular to the planes of the traps and are sufficiently strong, the system is stable against collapse but attractive interaction between molecules in different layers leads to the formation of dipolar chains, analogously to …
