Dynamical instability of the dark state in the conversion of Bose-Fermi mixtures into stable molecules

In this paper, we investigate the dynamical instability of the dark state in the conversion of Bose-Fermi mixtures into stable molecules through a stimulated Raman adiabatic passage aided by Feshbach resonance. We analytically obtain the regions where the dynamical instability appears and find that...

Summary:In this paper, we investigate the dynamical instability of the dark state in the conversion of Bose-Fermi mixtures into stable molecules through a stimulated Raman adiabatic passage aided by Feshbach resonance. We analytically obtain the regions where the dynamical instability appears and find that such instability in the Bose-Fermi mixture system is caused not only by bosonic interparticle interactions but also by Pauli blocking terms, which is different from the scenario of a pure bosonic system where instability is induced by nonlinear interparticle collisions. Taking a 40K-87Rb mixture as an example, we give the unstable regions numerically.
