Macroscopic attosecond chirp compensation

Attosecond chirp compensation over broadband high-order harmonics to generate near transform- limited 63 as pulses

By generating broadband high-harmonic pulses from neon and compensating for attosecond chirp by the material dispersion of argon, the generation of near transform-limited 63 as pulses was achieved. The spectral phase analysis showed that, without proper compensation, the attosecond chirp of the broadband harmonics caused splitting of attosecond high-harmonic pulses in addition to pulse broadeni...

Dispersion compensation for attosecond electron pulses

Few-cycle attosecond pulse chirp effects on asymmetries in ionized electron momentum distributions

ABCD formalism and attosecond few-cycle pulse via chirp manipulation of a seeded free electron laser.

An ABCD formalism is identified to characterize a seeded Free Electron Laser (FEL) with three chirps: an initial frequency chirp in the seed Laser, an energy chirp in the electron bunch, and an intrinsic frequency chirp due to the FEL process. A scheme of generating attosecond few-cycle pulses is proposed by invoking an FEL seeded by high-order harmonic generation (HHG) from an infrared laser. ...

Attosecond pulses measured from the attosecond lighthouse

The attosecond lighthouse is a method of using ultrafast wavefront rotation with high-harmonic generation to create a series of coherent, spatially separated attosecond pulses. Previously, temporal measurements by photoelectron streaking characterized isolated attosecond pulses created by manipulating the single-atom response1–4. The attosecond lighthouse, in contrast, generates a series of pul...
