The driven wave-packet dynamics in potentials exhibiting several potential wells is investigated. Therefore, local-control strategies are employed where the control field is constructed from the system’s dynamics at any instant of time. It is shown that particles can be moved successively between various potential minima. Furthermore, results presented indicate that the intuitive local-control scheme allows for the initiation of a clockwise or counterclockwise rotational motion of a model molecular motor.
