Adiabatic Transport of Bose-Einstein Condensate in Double- and Triple-Well Traps

By using a close similarity between multi-photon and tunneling population transfer schemes, we propose robust adiabatic methods for the transport of Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) in double- and triple-well traps. The calculations within the mean-field approximation (Gross-Pitaevskii equation) show that irreversible and complete transport takes place even in the presence of the non-linear effects caused by interaction between BEC atoms. The transfer is driven by adiabatic time-dependent monitoring the barriers and well depths. The proposed methods are universal and can be applied to a variety of systems and scenarios.
