The article discusses the simulation of the control of photoisomerization by light pulses. The intramolecular photoisomerization dynamics was simulated when a molecule is irradiated with quasi-monochromatic light. The transition of isomerization oscillator can be induce through the force exerted by the light-excited electronic subsystem. There exists a range of controlling parameters such as radiation frequency and intensity at which the isomerization oscillator is irreversibly photocalized.
