An adaptive mid-infrared (MIR) ultrashort pulse source is investigated for application to the coherent control of molecules. The MIR regime will allow access to vibrational modes of common organic bonds, and ultrashort pulse durations should enable the required interaction to occur before the energy is redistributed throughout the molecule. By using the molecular system as part of an adaptive learning loop, one can deliver the desired MIR pulse without the need for prior lengthy calculations to solve the Hamiltonian. The adaptive MIR pulse shaper is presented as a feasibility study in this thesis. It involves shaping a near-infrared (NIR) pulse using a spatial light modulator in a phase-only pulse shaper. The shaped NIR pulse is then transf...
