Time optimization and state-dependent constraints in the quantum optimal control of molecular orientation

Quantum Physics 2019-02-25 v1

Abstract

We apply two recent generalizations of monotonically convergent optimization algorithms to the control of molecular orientation by laser fields. We show how to minimize the control duration by a step-wise optimization and maximize the field-free molecular orientation using state-dependent constraints. We discuss the physical relevance of the different results.
