A simple method to generate arbitrary laser shapes for stimulated Raman adiabatic passage

Stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) is an effective technique to transfer state coherently with the features of both high fidelity and robustness in the field of quantum information and quantum precise measurement. In this note, we present a simple method to generate arbitrary laser shapes for STIRAP by controlling the modulation depth of the electro-optic modulator (EOM) and the diffraction efficiency of the acoustic-optic modulator (AOM) simultaneously. The EOM and AOM are used to control the power ratio between the two Raman lasers (pumping laser and Stokes laser) and the total power, respectively. Compared with the traditional method by combining two Raman lasers separated in space, this method has the advantage of simple structure and insensitivity to the environment disturbance, which would degrade the relative phase noise between two Raman lasers.
