Abstract
We use penalty methods coupled with unitary exponential operator metho ds to solve the optimal control problem for molecular time-dependent S chrodinger equations involving laser pulse excitations. A stable numer ical algorithm is presented which propagates directly from initial sta tes to given final states. Results are reported for an analytically so lvable model for the complete inversion of a three-state system.
