Stimulated Rapid Adiabatic Passage STIRAP

I0aO))I0a (1)) and I a(2))I0a (2))- Control is achieved by varying the four coefficients ah bj, i = 1,2. Stimulated rapid adiabatic passage (STIRAP) [245, 246] to be discussed in detail in Section 9.1, provides one choice for such state preparation. 

Up to now we have only considered the population changes ANi under SEP. There are, however, also coherent effects and an even more efficient scheme for population transfer is provided by the coherent stimulated rapid adiabatic passage (STIRAP) method, explained in Chap. 7. 

V. Engel Prof. Neusser, you mentioned the technique of Stimulated Raman Rapid Adiabatic Passage STIRAP, which allows for the coherent transfer of vibrational population selectively. Is the technique not another very efficient and experimentally verified scheme of coherent control ...
