Fast and optimal transport of atoms with non-harmonic traps

arXiv:1506.09099 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.92.043410

Abstract

We investigate the fast transport of an atom or a packet of atoms by different kinds of non-harmonic traps including power-law traps. The study is based on the reverse engineering method. Exact results are obtained and applied to design robust transport protocols. The optimization of the transport trajectory is performed with classical trajectories, and remains valid for the transport of a wave packet.
