Abstract

Nondispersive localized Trojan wave packets with ni 305 moving in near-circular Bohr-like orbits are created and transported to localized near-circular Trojan states of higher n, nf 600, by driving with a linearly polarized sinusoidal electric field whose period is slowly increased. The protocol is remarkably efficient with over 80% of the initial atoms being transferred to the higher n states, a result confirmed by classical trajectory Monte Carlo simulations.
