Abstract
Using intense lasers, several laboratories have generated high-order h armonic spectra which are flat over 20 eV. If the harmonics are approp riately phased, this bandwidth corresponds to temporal pulses on the o rder of approximately 5 x 10(-17) s, and thereby motivates a search fo r a new regime of short-pulse generation.
