Purpose of the Study:

  • To extend temporal gating into the nonlinear medium of attosecond pulse generation.
  • To develop a new method for characterizing sub-laser-cycle electron dynamics.
  • To utilize laser pulse ellipticity as an amplitude gate.

Main Methods:

  • Manipulating atom-intense laser field interactions.
  • Implementing an amplitude gate induced by fundamental pulse ellipticity.
