Abstract
We demonstrate that the maximum coherent superposition state can be
selectively prepared using a sequence of pulse pairs in lambda-type atomic systems,
with the final level as a doublet. In each pair, the Stocks pulse comes before the
pump pulse, with their back edges overlapping. Numerical results indicate that by
tuning the interval of the adjacent pulse pairs, the selective maximum coherent
superposition state preparation between the initial and one of the final levels can
be achieved. The phenomenon is caused by the accumulative property of the pulse
sequence.
