Research on isolated attosecond pulses (IAPs) based on high-order harmonic generation
changed substantially around 2010. Before then, the Ti: sapphire laser was the de facto …

Attosecond science offers formidable tools for the investigation of electronic processes at the
heart of important physical processes in atomic, molecular and solid-state physics. In the last …

The advent of visible-infrared laser pulses carrying a substantial fraction of their energy in a
single field oscillation cycle has opened a new era in the experimental investigation of …

Strong amplification in integrated photonics is one of the most desired optical functionalities
for computing, communications, sensing, and quantum information processing …

Femtosecond pulse generation was pioneered four decades ago using mode-locked dye
lasers, which dominated the field for the following 20 years. Dye lasers were then replaced …

The petawatt (PW) laser has experienced a rapid development in the past two decades, and
tens of giant facilities have been constructed worldwide. After realizing 10–100 PW, it seems …

The availability of high-energy pulses with durations shorter than the period of their carrier
frequency (sub-cycle) will reveal new regimes of strong-field light–matter interactions …

In the past years there was a huge interest in experimental and theoretical studies in the
area of few-optical-cycle pulses and in the broader fast growing field of the so-called …

The measurement and control of light field oscillations enable the study of ultrafast
phenomena on sub-cycle time scales. Electro-optic sampling (EOS) is a powerful field …

Dissipative Kerr soliton (DKS) frequency combs—also known as microcombs—have
arguably created a new field in cavity nonlinear photonics, with a strong cross-fertilization …
