We used the density matrix renormalization group to study the ground state of ytterbium atoms (171Yb) for the Hund lattice model, where the delocalized atoms are confined in a onc-dimensional optical superlattice and his number is one third of the lattice sites. We found a paramagnetic-ferromagnetic quantum phase transition for any value of the potential strength. The local critical ferromagnetic coupling decreases as the superlattice potential increases.
