Abstract

A potential application of vibrational control to laser-illuminated thermochemical systems has been recently demonstrated analytically. Vibrational stabilization experiments that support the analytical findings are reported. Rectangular-wave oscillating incident laser power is shown experimentally to induce asymptotically stable operating regimes with averages located at initially unstable steady states as predicted by vibrational control theory. Hence, vibrational control is demonstrated to be a feasible stabilizing strategy for laser-induced reactions that needs no online measurements or complex actuators.
