9 Coherent control General idea: use the broad spectral band of ultrashort pulses to direct a given optical process ( t) O ( t) Target ( t) O ( t)
10 Coherent control Distinct combinations of photons of the same pulse can lead the system to a given final state through different pathways How does that actually work?
11 Nonlinear optics High intensities P E rad. E inter. Charges: Anharmonic Oscillator r P c ( 1 ) r.e c ( 2 ) : r r EE c ( 3 ) M r r r EEE... nonlinear effects are observaded with high intensities
12 Nonlinear optics 1961: Second Harmonic Generation (SHG), Franken et al. Ruby laser beam (694.2nm) Quartz Crystal (SiO 2 ) Laser light (347.1nm) h h 2h Two-photon Absorption (2PA), Kaiser and Garret Ruby laser beam (694.2nm) Eu 2 :CaF 2 + Crystal Fluorescent light (425 nm) h h X h, X2
13 Two-photon absorption (2PA) process Phenomenon does not described for the Classical Physics and does not observed until the development of the Laser. 1-photon absorption (Linear) 2-photon absorption (Nonlinear) Maria Göppert-Mayer was born June 28th 1906 in Kattowitz. In 1963 she received the Nobel Prize in Physics. Theoretical model: Maria Göppert-Mayer, 1931 Two photons from an intense laser light beam are simultaneously absorbed in the same quantum act, leading the molecule to some excited state with energy equivalent to the absorbed two photons.

MMDM is a 600 nm gold-coated silicon nitride membrane (8 mm x 30 mm) suspended over an array of 19 actuator electrodes on a printed circuit board. Potential applied to the actuator creates an electrostatic attraction between the membrane and the electrode, deforming the mirror surface.

34 Controlling the MEH-PPV photo-degradation
35 Controlling the MEH-PPV photo-degradation = %/min = %/min FTL 0.3 %/min Photobleaching rate is smaller for the phase-masked pulses
36 Coherent control of molecular orientation Use fs-laser (broad band) to induce two-photon absorption and, consequently, molecular orientation (optical storage) Coherently control the molecular orientation
37 Coherent control of molecular orientation
38 Coherent control of molecular orientation
39 Coherent control of molecular orientation
40 Conclusions Pulse shaping methods + coherent control of the nonlinear interaction seems to be an interesting method to further control nonlinear optical processes.
