Manipulation of Molecular Quantum Wavepackets with Ultrashort Laser Pulses for Non-destructive Detection of Volatile Explosives

Abstract

Experimental demonstration of the ability to control Raman excitation of simple molecular systems in the strong field regime. Assessing the feasibility of applying the strong-field control techniques to more complex molecular systems. Experimental and theoretical development of alternative approaches to molecular identification with ultrashort laser pulses.
