Quantum control is concerned with active manipulation of physical and chemical processes
on the atomic and molecular scale. This work presents a perspective of progress in the field …

In this review, we report on recent progress in the generation and application of
multichromatic polarization-tailored pulse sequences for the coherent control of multiphoton …

The resonant dynamic Stark effect, observed in the Autler-Townes (AT) splitting, plays a
central role in ultrafast strong-field physics. Recent experiments have demonstrated the …

We present a systematic SU (2) approach for construction of composite sequences of pulses
with smooth temporal shapes that produce high-fidelity two-state excitation profiles. This …

We present a tomographic technique based on Photoelectron Angular Distributions (PADs)
measured by Velocity-Map-Imaging (VMI) to reconstruct the three-dimensional shape of …

The quantum control of the ionization of potassium atoms using shaped intense
femtosecond laser pulses is investigated. We use sinusoidal phase modulation as a …

Nonperturbative resonant multiphoton ionization (1+ 1) is studied using the resolvent
operator technique. Scaling parameters for effective two-level Hamiltonians are computed …

We present a joint experimental and theoretical study on strong-field photo-ionization of
sodium atoms using chirped femtosecond laser pulses. By tuning the chirp parameter …

We propose a scheme to control the shape of the Autler-Townes (AT) doublet in the
photoelectron spectrum from atomic resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) …

Exploiting coherence properties of laser light together with quantum mechanical matter
interferences in order to steer a chemical reaction into a pre-defined target channel is the …
