The authors discuss the technique of stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP), a
method of using partially overlapping pulses (from pump and Stokes lasers) to produce …

Nonadiabatic transition is a highly multidisciplinary concept and phenomenon, constituting a
fundamental mechanism of state and phase changes in various dynamical processes of …

Many branches of contemporary physics require atoms or molecules prepared in specified
quantum states—not only for traditional studies of state-to-state collision dynamics, isotope …

The last part of the twentieth century has experienced a huge resurge of activity in the field of
coherent light–matter interaction, more so in attempting to exert control over such …

We present a review of wave-packet dynamics, with a focus on'femto-chemistry'. We review
basic theory and simple properties of wave-packets, the application of two-state models to …

The first presentation of the STIRAP (stimulated Raman adiabatic passage) technique with
proper theoretical foundation and convincing experimental data appeared 25 years ago, in …

Highly efficient and selective population transfer in NO molecules in the electronic ground
state (X 2 Π 1/2) from the vibrational level v''= 0 to the level v''= 6 is demonstrated. It shows …

The procedure of stimulated-Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP), one of many well-
established techniques for quantum-state manipulation, finds widespread application in …

We present the process of adiabatic passage by light-induced potentials for transferring a
wave packet from one molecular potential to the displaced ground vibrational state of …
