Improvement of conversion efficiency of atom-molecule Bose-Einstein condensate

We investigate the stimulated Raman adiabatic passage in two-color photoassociation for a atom-molecule Bose-Einstein condensate. By applying two time-varying Guassian laser pulses that fulfill generalized two-photon resonance condition, we obtain highly efficient atom-molecule conversion. The efficiency depends on the free-bound detuning and the delay time between the two pulses. By adjusting the parameters optimally, we achieve 92% conversion efficiency.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures.

Storage of spin squeezing in a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate

Efficient control of spin squeezing in a two-component Bose-Einstein Condensate is studied by rapidly turning-off the external field at a time that maximal spin squeezing appears. We show that strong reduction of spin fluctuation can be maintained in a nearly fixed direction for a long time. We explain the underlying physics unambiguously, and present analytical expressions of the maximal-squeezing time.Comment: 10 pages, 5 figures.

Spin squeezing and maximal-squeezing time

Spin squeezing of a nonlinear interaction model with Josephson-like coupling is studied to obtain time scale of maximal squeezing. Based upon two exactly solvable cases for two and three particles, we find that the maximal-squeezing time depends on the level spacing between the ground state and its next neighbor eigenstate.Comment: 7 pages, 5 figures, 1 table.
