In sufficiently deep d-dimensional simple cubic lattices, J (V0/ER)3/4exp {-2V0/ER} and U (V0/ER)d/4 hold, where V0 is the lattice depth given by the laser intensity and ER is the recoil energy; cf.

31. The experimental implementation of a ring-shaped optical lattice has been discussed in L. Amico, A. Osterloh, and F. Cataliotti, Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 063201 (2005). The persistent ring currents show up in characteristic interference patterns of the density after time of flight. PRLTAO 0031-9007 10.1103/PhysRevLett.95.063201
