Time optimization and state-dependent constraints in the quantum optimal control of molecular orientation
arXiv:1308.0666 · doi:10.1080/09500340.2013.860200
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.
