Optimization of field-free molecular alignment by phase-shaped laser pulses
Résumé
We theoretically demonstrate the optimization of field-free molecular alignment by phase-shaped femtosecond laser pulses. The effect is assessed in O2 at T = 60 K under realistic conditions of intensity and pulse shaping. The spectral laser phase is sampled through 128 control parameters and a self learning evolutionary algorithm combined with a nonperturbative regime calculation is used in order to design the specific phase that maximizes the degree of alignment. The postpulse molecular alignment appears significantly enhanced compared to a Fourier-transform-limited pulse of same energy. The analysis of the target state reveals that the solution is close to the optimal one.
