"Quantum control of electron wave packets in bound molecules by trains of half-cycle pulses";
Physical Review A, 84 (2011), 84; 043421-1 - 043421-10.



English abstract:
We investigate protocols for transient localization of electrons in homodiatomic molecules, as well as permanent localization via population inversion in polar molecules. By examining three different model systems with one electronic and one nuclear degree of freedom, we identify mechanisms leading to control over the localization of the electronic wave packets. We show that electronic states dressed by the quasi-dc component of the train of half-cycle pulses steer the combined electronic and nuclear motion toward the targeted state.
