Abstract
Robust stimulated Raman exact passages are requisite for controlling nonlinear quantum systems, with wide applications, ranging from ultracold molecules to nonlinear optics to superchemistry. Inspired by shortcuts to adiabaticity, we propose the fast-forward scaling of stimulated Raman adiabatic processes with nonlinearity involved, describing the transfer from an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate to a molecular one by controllable external fields. The fidelity and robustness of atom-molecule conversion are shown to surpass those of conventional adiabatic passages, assisted by the fast-forward driving field. Finally, our results are extended to fractional stimulated Raman adiabatic processes for the coherent superposition of atomic and molecular states.
