Abstract
For numerous applications, the computation and provision of exact derivative information plays an important role for optimizing the considered system. This paper introduces the technique of algorithmic differentiation, a method to compute derivatives of arbitrary order within working precision. This derivative information will be combined with a calculus-based optimization algorithm to optimize a non-trivially shaped laser pulse which coherently steers the electron dynamics in a semiconductor quantum wire. Numerical results illustrating the cost for the derivative computation and the optimization process are presented and discussed.
