The ultimate goal in quantum control is to prepare a desired state as fast as possible with sufficient high-fidelity allowed by available resources and the experimental constraints. Stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) is a robust way for high-fidelity state transfer with the requirement of sufficiently long operation time for the adiabatic evolution. We here theoretically propose and then experimentally demonstrate a transitionless superadiabatic protocol to speed up the STIRAP. Through simply modifying the shapes of the Raman pulses, a fast and high-fidelity Stimulated Raman superadiabatic passage is experimentally realized, which is robust against control parameter variations. The all-optical, robust, and fast protocol demonstrated here provides an efficient and practical way to control the quantum systems.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-01-22T16:19:19.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "experimental realization", "cold atoms", "quantum system", "high-fidelity stimulated raman superadiabatic passage", "long operation time" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2016arXiv160106058D" } } }
