Floquet perturbative analysis for STIRAP beyond the rotating wave approximation
2009
We present a perturbative analysis of Floquet eigenstates in the context of two delayed laser processes (STIRAP) in three level systems. We show the efficiency of a systematic perturbative development which can be applied as long as no non-linear resonances occur.
Quantum averaging for driven systems with resonances
2000
Abstract We discuss the effects of resonances in driven quantum systems within the context of quantum averaging techniques in the Floquet representation. We consider in particular iterative methods of KAM type and the extensions needed to take into account resonances. The approach consists in separating the coupling terms into resonant and nonresonant components at a given scale of time and intensity. The nonresonant part can be treated with perturbative techniques, which we formulate in terms of KAM-type unitary transformations that are close to the identity. These can be interpreted as averaging procedures with respect to the dynamics defined by effective uncoupled Hamiltonians. The reson…
