Abstract

We investigate atomic population dynamics of two Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) states that are in different traps or in the same trap and are optically coupled through a common excited state by Raman laser pulses. For large interatomic interactions, almost all of the atoms that are initially in one of the traps (or one of the internal states) are either completely transferred into the other state or stay in the initially occupied state after the laser pulses, and the atoms (populations) are never distributed to both condensate states at the same time. Applications to the atomic logic gate and to output couplers of the atom laser are pointed out.
