Dynamic stark control of torsional motion by a pair of laser pulses.
The torsional motion of a molecule composed of two substituted benzene rings, linked by a single bond, is coherently controlled by a pair of strong (3×10^13 Wcm^−2), nonresonant (800 nm) 200-fs-long laser pulses—both linearly polarized perpendicular to the single-bond axis. If the second pulse is se...
