摘要：In this paper, optical simulation of double rapid adiabatic passage (RAP) is investigated in three evanescently coupled waveguides with longitudinally varying detunings of the propagation constants. Unlike the time-dependent detuning which is kept linearly increased or decreased when the RAP is applied in two-state atomic systems, here all possible situations of the corresponding space-dependent detunings with or without sign flips are considered. At the maximum of the couplings in the waveguide structure, the detunings tend to become zero and the sign flips are supposed to occur. Theoretical analysis shows that different light evolutions such as light splitting, complete light transfer, or complete light return can be realized adiabatically, depending on the choices of the detunings. Moreover, two of the above three phenomena can be observed simultaneously in the waveguide structure under some circumstances. The theoretical analysis is confirmed by numerical calculations. Due to the robustness of the double RAP, the technique can be applied to design optical devices such as achromatic beam splitters or beam couplers.
