The technique of stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP), which allows efficient and
selective population transfer between quantum states without suffering loss due to …

Gauge fields are central in our modern understanding of physics at all scales. At the highest
energy scales known, the microscopic universe is governed by particles interacting with …

We show that the adiabatic motion of ultracold, multilevel atoms in spatially varying laser
fields can give rise to effective non-Abelian gauge fields if degenerate adiabatic eigenstates …

Quantum computers [1–4] are explicitly quantum mechanical systems that use phenomena
such as superposition and entanglement to perform computational tasks more efficiently …

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

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

Geometric quantum computation is the idea that geometric phases can be used to
implement quantum gates, ie, the basic elements of the Boolean network that forms a …

We propose a protocol for the measurement of adiabatic phases of periodically driven
quantum systems coupled to an open cavity that enables dispersive readout. It turns out that …

We propose a method of constructing cold atom analogs of the spintronic device known as
the Datta-Das transistor (DDT), which, despite its seminal conceptual role in spintronics, has …

We present a process for the construction of a SWAP gate which does not require a
composition of elementary gates from a universal set. We propose to employ direct …
