X Abstract

We present a method of producing single attosecond pulses by using a few-cycle (5 fs) driving pulse with two additional weak control pulses. We discuss how single attosecond pulses produced from high-order harmonic generation processes in a synthesized three-colour laser field are similar to those processes in a much shorter single-colour laser field. Based on the high-order harmonic spectrum, classical ionizing and returning energy maps, time-frequency maps and time profiles of the attosecond pulses, the actions of the synthesized three-colour laser field are analogous to a 3 fs field although some differences still exist, and our method is proved to be a potential way to reduce the attosecond pulse duration from high-order harmonic generation with a currently available ultrafast laser source instead of a shorter pulse.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
