Description
It is shown that two-photon strong-field ionization of atoms can be extremely well controlled -- basically switching between no and complete ionization -- with minor modification of the laser pulse. The underlying mechanism will be explained for a model system and realistic calculations for single-active-electron atoms are presented.
