Manipulation of ultrafast surface processes by means of fs-pulse shaping — •Felix Steeb, Marlies Wessendorf, Jörg Lange, Alexander Mönnich, Michael Bauer, and Martin Aeschlimann — FB Physik, TU Kaiserslautern, Erwin-Schrödinger-Str. 46, 67663 Kaiserslautern

In the last years, coherent control of chemical reactions in the gas phase [1], or in the liquid phase [2] by means of adaptive femtosecond pulse shaping has been demonstrated.

In this paper, we present application of the pulse shaping technique to the optimization / manipulation of ultrafast surface processes, such as surface chemical reactions.

The apparatus used to shape 20 fs pulses consists of an all-reflective zero-dispersion compressor in combination with a programmable 640-stripe liquid crystal spatial light modulator (SLM). A closed loop setup, controlled by an evolutionary algorithm [3], iteratively achieves optimization of an experimental signal which is used as feedback. We find that the Two-Photon-Photoemission Yield, e.g. measured from an adsorbate resonance on the system Cs/Cu(111), is a possible detection scheme that enables us to control specific surface-related properties. The experimental setup, preliminary results and future prospects will be discussed.
