dc.descriptionWe study the effect of a one dimensional optical superlattice on the superfluid fraction, number squeezing, dynamic structure factor and the quasi-momentum distribution of the Mott-insulator. We show that due to the secondary lattice,there is a decrease in the superfluid fraction and the number fluctuation. The dynamic structure factor which can be measured by Bragg spectroscopy is also suppressed due to the addition of the secondary lattice. The visibility of the interference pattern (the quasi-momentum distribution)of the Mott-insulator is found to decrease due to the presence of the secondary lattice. Our results have important implications in atom interferometry and quantum computation in optical lattices.
