Problems solved by technology

Among them, due to the low intensity of attosecond pulses and the lack of nonlinear phenomena required for measurement in the extreme ultraviolet region, there are still many difficulties in measuring single attosecond pulses using the autocorrelation method
The use of correlation crossover technology is currently a relatively common method for measuring single attosecond pulses. This method uses femtosecond lasers as a reference time, and obtains the pulse width of attosecond pulses by fitting the energy drift or broadening of the photoelectron spectrum with phase changes. This method is very complicated, requiring not only a series of photoelectron spectra, but also a large number of fitting calculations
So far, a direct quantum relationship between photoelectron spectra and single attosecond pulses has not been established

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for measuring the pulse width of attosecond pulse, including the following steps: 1) beam combining light composed of laser and the attosecond pulse is focused on a noble gas, and formed into a photoelectronic signal containing attosecond pulse information by single photon ionization; 2) the photoelectronic signals are collected to obtain a photoelectron spectrum; 3) the photoelectron spectrum is analyzed by utilizing the relational formula of the photoelectron spectrum and the attosecond pulse so as to obtain the pulse width of the attosecond pulse. The method of the invention establishes the direct relation between the photoelectron spectrum and the attosecond pulse, and obtains the pulse width of the attosecond pulse by measuring the photoelectron spectral width; the proposal simplifies the measuring method and avoids massive fitting computation, and the measuring result is precise.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for measuring attosecond pulse width. Background technique [0002] With the development of ultrafast technology, the intense laser pulse is shortened continuously, and its pulse width has reached the order of photoperiod. This cycle-scale laser pulse (about 5 femtoseconds) interacts with atoms, making a new breakthrough in the generation of shorter pulses, and a single attosecond pulse has been realized. Attosecond pulses can realize real-time measurement and control of electron motion in atoms and molecules, which has attracted increasing attention in recent years. Single attosecond pulses have been used to observe the evolution process of atomic inner core, electron tunnel ionization and control the generation of higher harmonics. All of these applications rely on single attosecond pulses and are therefore very important to measure attosecond pulses. [0003] At present, there are roughly two methods for measurin...
