Since the first demonstration of the generation of attosecond pulses (1 as= 10− 18 s) in the
extreme-ultraviolet spectral region, several measurement techniques have been introduced …

Recent advances in the generation of well-characterized subfemtosecond laser pulses have
opened up unpredicted opportunities for the real-time observation of ultrafast electronic …

Attosecond metrology has so far largely remained limited to titanium: sapphire lasers
combined with an active stabilization of the carrier-envelope phase (CEP). These sources …

The generation of extremely short isolated attosecond pulses requires both a broad spectral
bandwidth and control of the spectral phase. Rapid progress has been made in both …

Photoemission from atoms is assumed to occur instantly in response to incident radiation
and provides the basis for setting the zero of time in clocking atomic-scale electron motion …

This book's coverage builds from basic underlying theory to more complex ideas related to
attosecond optics. It shows how the generation of attosecond optical pulses requires …

The generation of sub‐optical‐cycle, carrier–envelope phase‐stable light pulses is one of
the frontiers of ultrafast optics. The two key ingredients for sub‐cycle pulse generation are …

Photoemission spectroscopy is central to understanding the inner workings of condensed
matter, from simple metals and semiconductors to complex materials such as Mott insulators …

Isolated attosecond pulses are powerful tools for exploring electron dynamics in matter. So
far, such extreme ultraviolet pulses have only been generated using high power, few-cycle …

The ability to fully characterize ultrashort, ultra-intense X-ray pulses at free-electron lasers
(FELs) will be crucial in experiments ranging from single-molecule imaging to extreme …
