“…A spectral broadening of a factor of 2 is also associated with the gating, and the chirp rate is increased by a factor of 2. This is consistent with the observations reported in [26]. This measurement is a direct proof of the efficiency of the polarization gating technique, and opens the route to the real-time optimization of pulse duration.…”

We demonstrate the first experimental complete temporal characterization of high-harmonic XUV pulses by spectral phase interferometry, with an all-optical setup. This method allows us to perform single-shot measurements of the harmonic temporal profile and phase, revealing a remarkable shot-to-shot stability. We characterize harmonics generated in argon by a 50 fs 800 nm laser pulse. The 11th harmonic is found to be 22 fs long with a negative chirp rate of -4.8 x 10(27) s(-2). This duration can be reduced to 13 fs by modulating the polarization of the generating laser. The technique is easy to implement and could be routinely used in femtosecond XUV pump-probe experiments with harmonics.

“…A spectral broadening compatible with a confinement was observed in the first experiment [3]. A clear and direct evidence of the confinement has been observed in the time domain by XUV-IR cross-correlation experiments [5]. Here, in the first part of the present work, we present an improved measurement of the temporally confined harmonic pulse duration by using an IR-XUV collinear geometry and 9 fs probe pulses.…”

“…Grâce à un système d'inter-corrélation [16,17], nous avons clairement pu observer que l'émission XUV est confinée par la modulation de polarisation. De plus, nous avons pu valider expérimentalement la loi précédente.…”

Résumé. Nous générons des harmoniques d'ordres élevés en utilisant une impulsion femtoseconde intense dont la polarisation est modulée temporellement. Cette évolution rapide de la polarisation nous permet de confiner l'émission XUV dans l'intervalle temporel où la polarisation de l'impulsion fondamentale est quasi-linéaire et de l'interdire partout ailleurs. En utilisant des impulsions ultracourtes dont la phase absolue est contrôlée, nous pouvons ainsi générer des impulsions attosecondes isolées accordables et de large bande spectrale.
