We discuss the quantum rotation gates in tripod system. We show that Stimulated Raman Adiabatic Passage (STIRAP) requires high Rabi frequencies to have a perfect rotation gate. Moreover, we improve this process by using superadiabatic approach. This approach requires additional Hamiltonian that can be implemented by driving the tripod with addition
