Semiconductor and metallic filters shape high-order harmonics, optimizing attosecond pulse bandwidth and duration. This research demonstrates attosecond pulse generation with bandwidths up to 45 eV and durations compressed to 130 attoseconds.

Area of Science:

  • * Physics, specifically nonlinear optics and attosecond science.
  • * Materials science, focusing on transmission filter properties.

Background:

  • * High-order harmonic generation (HHG) is a key process for producing ultrashort light pulses.
  • * Shaping the spectral and temporal properties of these harmonics is crucial for advanced applications.
  • * Transmission filters offer a method to modify the characteristics of generated attosecond pulses.

Purpose of the Study:

  • * To investigate the use of semiconductor (Si) and metallic (Al, Zr) transmission filters for shaping high-order harmonics.
  • * To optimize the bandwidth and pulse duration of attosecond pulses generated from neon gas.
  • * To demonstrate the generation of attosecond pulses within a specific energy range (50-80 eV).

Main Methods:

  • * Interaction of an intense titanium sapphire laser field with a pulsed neon gas target.
