We consider the particle–hole excitation energy for the insulator state of an ultracold atomic Bose system created by increasing non-adiabatically the depth of an optical lattice. We give the analytical expression of this excitation energy, and it is found that the excitation energy is quite different from that of the ordinary Mott insulator state created by adiabatically increasing the depth of the optical lattice. This difference physically arises from the different particle-number fluctuations in the lattice sites for the insulator state created adiabatically or non-adiabatically.
