Abstract
The feasibility of mode-selective excitation with broadband femtosecond laser pulses is demonstrated for toluene in liquid phase. A learning-loop optimal control scheme was applied to a stimulated Raman excitation process. Modifications of the phase shape of one of the exciting pulses resulted in dramatic changes of the mode distribution reflected in coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectra. An evolutionary algorithm guided the coherent excitation process to a selective enhancement or suppression of one or more vibrational modes over the complete coherence lifetime spanning several picoseconds. New ways of spectral filtering as well as exciting possibilities of mode-selective studying of chemical reaction dynamics are indicated.
