Theoretical investigations of femtosecond dynamical processes in elemental clusters and
their active control by designed light fields are of fundamental importance for learning how …

The control of quantum dynamics via specially tailored laser pulses is a long-standing goal
in physics and chemistry. Partly, this dream has come true, as sophisticated pulse-shaping …

The technological needs imposed by the exponential miniaturization trend of electronic
components has drawn attention toward the development of functional molecular or even …

Quantum computation is based on implementing selected unitary transformations
representing algorithms. A generalized optimal control theory is used to find the driving field …

Most of the numerical simulation in quantum (bilinear) control have used one of the
monotonically convergent algorithms of Krotov (introduced by Tannor et al.) or of Zhu and …

In recent experiments on ultracold matter, molecules have been produced from ultracold
atoms by photoassociation, Feshbach resonances, and three-body recombination. The …

Strong field, closed-loop control of gas-phase photochemical reactivity is the focus of this
article. The control of chemical reactivity is now possible using tailored laser pulses to …

A control system and apparatus for use with an ultra-fast laser is provided. In another aspect
of the present invention, the apparatus includes a laser, pulse shaper, detection device and …
