▎ 摘 要
We study the ground-state properties of the interacting spinless fermions in the p(x,y)-orbital bands in the two-dimensional honeycomb optical lattice, which exhibit different features from those in the p(z)-orbital system of graphene. In addition to two dispersive bands with Dirac cones, the tight-binding band structure exhibits another two completely flat bands over the entire Brillouin zone. With the realistic sinusoidal optical potential, the flat bands acquire a finite but much smaller bandwidth compared to the dispersive bands. The band flatness dramatically enhanced interaction effects giving rise to various charge and bond ordered states at commensurate fillings of n = i/6 (i=1-6). At n=1/6, the many-body ground states can be exactly solved as the close-packed hexagon states which can be stabilized even in the weakly interacting regime. The dimerization of bonding strength occurs at both n=1/2 and 5/6, and the latter case is accompanied with the charge-density wave of holes. The trimerization of bonding strength and charge inhomogeneity appear at n=1/3, 2/3. These crystalline orders exhibit themselves in the noise correlations of the time-of-flight spectra.
