We study the conversion of 40K and 87Rb atoms into stable molecules
through the stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) in photoassociation
assisted with Feshbach resonance. Starting with the mean-field Langrange
density, we show that the atom-to-molecule conversion efficiency by STIRAP
aided by Feshbach resonance is much larger than that by bare Feshbach
resonance. We also study the influence of the population imbalance on the
atom-to-molecule conversion.Comment: Revtex, 5 pages, 3 figures; version to appear in PRA (some content
