“…The couplings start in counterintuitive order, but terminate simultaneously with equal values of their strengths. A tripod-STIRAP WG analogue was suggested by Hope et al (2015) for use as adiabatic quantum gates that produce a 50:50 and 1 3 : 2 3 beam splitter, and for a CNOT gate in a planar thin, shallow-ridge WG structure. Menchon-Enrich et al (2013) used the dependence of the coupling between WGs on the light's wavelength to experimentally demonstrate a STIRAPinspired optical device that simultaneously behaves as a low-and high-pass spectral filter.…”

The technique of stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP), which allows efficient and selective population transfer between quantum states without suffering loss due to spontaneous emission, was introduced in 1990 (Gaubatz et al., J. Chem. Phys. 92, 5363, 1990). Since then STIRAP has emerged as an enabling methodology with widespread successful applications in many fields of physics, chemistry and beyond. This article reviews the many applications of STIRAP emphasizing the developments since 2000, the time when the last major review on the topic was written (Vitanov et al., Adv. At. Mol. Opt. Phys. 46, 55, 2001). A brief introduction into the theory of STIRAP and the early applications for population transfer within three-level systems is followed by the discussion of several extensions to multilevel systems, including multistate chains and tripod systems. The main emphasis is on the wide range of applications in atomic and molecular physics (including atom optics, cavity quantum electrodynamics, formation of ultracold molecules, etc.), quantum information (including single-and two-qubit gates, entangled-state preparation, etc.), solid-state physics (including processes in doped crystals, nitrogen-vacancy centers, superconducting circuits, semiconductor quantum dots and wells), and even some applications in classical physics (including waveguide optics, polarization optics, frequency conversion, etc.). Promising new prospects for STIRAP are also presented (including processes in optomechanics, precision experiments, detection of parity violation in molecules, spectroscopy of core-nonpenetrating Rydberg states, population transfer with X-ray pulses, etc.).

“…The first proposals [6,7] and the first experimental demonstration [8] of a STIRAP-like process in waveguides have stimulated several studies on adiabatic light passage in waveguides by slight modifications of this concept. These include theoretical and experimental studies related to the fractional STIRAP process [9], multistate STIRAP [10][11][12], beam splitting [9,[13][14][15][16], adiabatic mode conversion [11,17], the role of nonlinear effects [18], or the use of such waveguide structures for photonic quantum gate operations [16]. Generally these approaches profit from the high robustness of the adiabatic process, leading for instance to a broadband behavior of the light spatial adiabatic passage process.…”

We study adiabatic light transfer in systems of two coupled waveguides with spatially varying detuning of the propagation constants, providing an analogy to the quantum phenomena of rapid adiabatic passage (RAP) and two-state stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (two-state STIRAP). Experimental demonstration using a photoinduction technique confirms the robust and broadband character of the structures that act as broadband directional couplers and broadband beam splitters, respectively.

“…Therefore, it is desirable to suppress the power existing in this common TE slab mode while using this TE slab mode as a bus for long-range coupling. It is possible to achieve long-range coupling in thin-ridge SOI waveguides using a common TE slab bus mode without exciting this bus as well as bypassing intermediate waveguides by combining the lateral leakage behaviour and an adiabatic technique called Coherent Tunnelling Adiabatic Passage (CTAP) [49] or photonic quantum gate design [50].…”

This paper presents an overview of lateral leakage in silicon photonics due to polarization coupling between the guided mode of a ridge waveguide and unguided slab mode in the etched cladding. We explain the physical origins and provide insight into how this effect can be suppressed or harnessed. We show how lateral leakage can manifest as new resonant behaviour and explore this effect in the context of bound states in the continuum. We review a number of applications for devices based on lateral leakage and present outlook for a new generation of polarization manipulators, antennas and filters. Index Terms-Silicon photonics, optical waveguide, optical resonator, bound states in the continuum.
