“…The underlying physics behind this phenomenon is that the chirp can effectively increase the optical cycle of the driving laser field, after the laser reverses its direction, the quasifreely electron experiences a longest time acceleration when returning to the parent ion and obtains much higher kinetic energy from the driving laser field; as a result, the cutoff position of HHG is extended significantly. Moreover, this approach also has the potential to select a short or long quantum path, which leads to the production of isolated short attosecond pulses, such as a 108-as pulse via an intense few-cycle chirped pulse, [25] a 10-as pulse with phase compensation using a chirped few-cycle laser and a static electric field, [26] a 37-as (57-as) pulse by an intense few-cycle chirped laser and a half cycle pulse (an ultraviolet attosecond pulse), [27,28] a 59-as pulse by a multicycle chirped pulse combined with a chirp-free pulse, [29] a 31-as (5-as) pulse without (with) phase compensation using a two-color laser pulse with the combined chirps, [30] a 102-as pulse with a multicycle chirped and chirp-free two-color field, [31] a sub-24-as pulse with phase compensation using multi-cycle chirped polarization gating pulses, [32] and an intense isolated sub-40-as pulse generation in pre-excited He-ionic medium with the use of a same-frequency laser field synthesis. [33] In our previous work, [34] by combining a 9-fs/800-nm fundamental chirped pulse and a 9-fs/1600-nm controlling chirped pulse, we realized a 1342-eV supercontinuum with a short path contribution and also obtained an isolated 28-as pulse with a bandwidth of 155 eV.…”
