Colloquium: Optimal control of high-harmonic generation

Winterfeldt, Carsten, Spielmann, Christian, Gerber, Gustav·2008·Reviews of Modern Physics

Abstract

High-harmonic generation provides an attractive light source of coherent radiation in the extreme-ultraviolet (XUV) and soft-x-ray regions of the spectrum and allows for the production of single attosecond pulses or pulse trains. This Colloquium covers the control of high-harmonic spectra by temporal and spatial pulse shaping of the driving laser pulses and its implications on time-resolved XUV spectroscopy and attosecond pulse shaping. It summarizes important steps for extending existing pulse shaping techniques and control schemes from the near-infrared or visible part to shorter wavelengths. Using adaptive pulse shaping of the driving laser pulses, several groups have demonstrated control of the high-harmonic spectrum, including the author's work on the complete control over the XUV spectrum of high-order harmonics, generated in a gas-filled hollow fiber. It is possible to achieve both the enhancement and the suppression of single or several selected harmonic orders. These arbitrarily shaped soft-x-ray spectra will allow for important modifications of the resulting harmonic pulses in the temporal domain. This constitutes first steps towards direct attosecond pulse shaping in the soft-x-ray domain. Moreover, high-harmonic generation in a hollow-core fiber can be enhanced by coupling into a single fiber mode using a feedback-controlled adaptive two-dimensional spatial light modulator.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
