Ultrafast nanooptics is an emerging field that combines the concepts and tools of ultrafast spectroscopy and coherent control with those of near-field optics [1]. A simple demonstration of coherent control is the ability to maximize the yield of nonlinear optical processes; we choose for our demonstration two-photon excited luminescence from gold nanostructures [2]. We compare optimization results in different nanostructures showing that the pulse characteristics that result in the highest luminescence yield depend on the single structure; control has therefore a local character. We also provide numerical simulations to support our experimental findings [3].
