In this talk, I will describe our recent theoretical efforts exploring selective control of functional properties in perovskite oxides that exploit non-linear lattice dynamics. Using first-principles techniques we show that optical control of various properties is experimentally feasible and that, when combined with epitaxial strain, it is possible to transiently stabilize and explore phases inaccessible in the equilibrium phase diagram.
