This paper examines the nonlinear stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) in a quantum many-body framework, showcasing how an out-of-time-ordered correlator (OTOC) measure accurately captures chaotic and nonchaotic features of the system and matches classical chaos quantified by Lyapunov exponent analysis.
Nonlinear stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) is a fascinating physical process that dynamically explores chaotic and nonchaotic phases. In a recent paper [A. Dey and M. Kulkarni, Phys. Rev. Res. 2, 042004(R) (2020)], such a phenomenon is realized in a cavity-QED platform. There, the emergence of chaos and its impact on STIRAP efficiency are mainly demonstrated in the semiclassical limit. In the present paper we treat the problem in a fully quantum many-body framework. With the aim of extracting quantum signatures of a classically chaotic system, it is shown that an out-of-time-ordered correlator (OTOC) measure precisely captures chaotic and nonchaotic features of the system. The prediction by OTOC is in precise matching with classical chaos quantified by Lyapunov exponent analysis. Furthermore, it is shown that the quantum route corresponding to the semiclassical followed state encounters a dip in single-particle purity within the chaotic phase, depicting a consequence of chaos. A dynamics through the chaotic phase is associated with spreading of the many-body quantum state and an irreversible increase in the number of participating adiabatic eigenstates.
