In this work, we investigate how and to which extent a quantum system can be driven along a prescribed path in Hilbert space by a suitably shaped laser pulse. To calculate the optimal, i.e., the variationally best pulse, a properly defined…
We present a novel method for probing the alignment of the molecular axis of an ultracold, nonpolar dimer. These results are obtained using diatomic $^{87}\textrm{Rb}_2$ molecules in the vibrational ground state of the lowest triplet…
An all-optical method of ultrafast spin rotation is put forward to precisely manipulate the polarization of relativistic charged particle beams of leptons or ions. In particular, laser-driven dense ultrashort beams are manipulated via…
We present a general concept to accelerate non-relativistic charged particles. Our concept employs an adiabatically-tapered dielectric-lined waveguide which supports accelerating phase velocities for synchronous acceleration. We propose an…
We propose a technique which produces nearly complete ionization of the population of a discrete state coupled to a continuum by a two-photon transition via a lossy intermediate state whose lifetime is much shorter than the interaction…
Questions are raised about certain experimental and theoretical claims that atoms may be stabilized into their bound states, and prevented from achieving full ionization, by the application of adiabatic, ultraintense, high-frequency laser…
We show how one can perform arbitrary rotation of any qubit, using delayed laser pulses through nonadiabatic evolution, i.e., via transitions among the adiabatic states. We use a double-Lambda scheme and use a set of control parameters such…
We explore the possibility of forming a oriented polar molecule directly from a pair of colliding atoms. The process comprises the photoassociation and vibrational stabilization along with the molecular orientation. These processes are…
We present an analysis of two experimental approaches to controlling the directionality of molecular rotation with ultrashort laser pulses. The two methods are based on the molecular interaction with either a pair of pulses (a "double kick"…
Stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP), driven with pulses of optimum shape and delay has the potential of reaching fidelities high enough to make it suitable for fault-tolerant quantum information processing. The optimum pulse shapes…
Long-lived (symmetry protected) hyperpolarized spin states offer important new opportunities (for example, in clinical MR imaging), but existing methods for producing these states are limited by either excess energy dissipation or high…
We present a theoretical study of the shaping of the time-evolution of field-free orientation of linear molecules. We show the extend to which the degree of orientation can be steered along a desired periodic time-dependent signal. The…
The countless applications of ultrashort laser pulses in very different scientific areas explain the ongoing efforts to develop new strategies for the generation of light pulses with increasingly better characteristics. In this work, we…
Machine learning for predicting control landscape maps of full quantum molecular dynamics is examined through a case study of the laser-induced three-dimensional (3D) alignment of asymmetric top molecules, an essential technique for…
In recent experiments on ultracold matter, molecules have been produced from ultracold atoms by photoassociation, Feshbach resonances, and three-body recombination. The created molecules are translationally cold, but vibrationally highly…
We show here that due to non-adiabatic couplings in decaying systems applying the same time-dependent protocol in the forward and reverse direction to the same mixed initial state leads to different final pure states. In particular, in…
We prove an alternative pulsing mechanism based on power adiabatic evolution of pump in Tm-doped fiber laser. A pulsed laser technique, unlike Q-switching and gain-switching, is explored under the equilibrium between the stimulated emission…
We demonstrate a novel experimental implementation to strongly align molecules at full repetition rates of free-electron lasers. We utilized the available in-house laser system at the coherent x-ray imaging beamline at the Linac Coherent…
A new scheme of proton acceleration from a laser-driven near-critical-density plasma is proposed. Plasma with a tailored density profile allows a two-stage acceleration of protons. The protons are pre-accelerated in the laser-driven…
Molecules with their axes sharply confined in space, available through laser-induced alignment methods, are essential for many current experiments, including ultrafast molecular imaging. Most of these applications require both that the…
