Bright Coherent Ultrahigh Harmonics in the keV X-ray Regime from Mid-Infrared Femtosecond Lasers
Tenio Popmintchev,Ming-Chang Chen,Dimitar Popmintchev,Paul Arpin,Susannah Brown,Skirmantas Alisauskas,Giedrius Andriukaitis,Tadas Balciunas,Oliver D. Mücke,Audrius Pugzlys,Andrius Baltuška,Bonggu Shim,Samuel E. Schrauth,Alexander L. Gaeta,Carlos Hernandez-Garcia,Luis Plaja,Andreas Becker,Agnieszka Jaron-Becker,Margaret M. Murnane,Henry C. Kapteyn +19 more
TL;DR: By guiding a mid-infrared femtosecond laser in a high-pressure gas, ultrahigh harmonics can be generated that emerge as a bright supercontinuum that spans the entire electromagnetic spectrum from the ultraviolet to more than 1.6 kilo–electron volts, allowing, in principle, the generation of pulses as short as 2.5 attoseconds.

Phase-Matched Generation of Coherent Soft X-rays
A. Rundquist,Charles G. Durfee,Zenghu Chang,Catherine M. Herne,Sterling Backus,Margaret M. Murnane,Henry C. Kapteyn +6 more
TL;DR: Phase-matched harmonic conversion of visible laser light into soft x-rays was demonstrated and the recently developed technique of guided-wave frequency conversion was used to upshift light from 800 nanometers to the range from 17 to 32 nanometers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shaped-pulse optimization of coherent emission of high-harmonic soft X-rays
Randy A. Bartels,Sterling Backus,E. Zeek,Lino Misoguti,Gleb Vdovin,Ivan P. Christov,Margaret M. Murnane,Henry C. Kapteyn +7 more
TL;DR: By carefully tailoring the shape of intense light pulses, this work can control the interaction of light with an atom during ionization, improving the efficiency of X-ray generation by an order of magnitude.
Journal ArticleDOI
Beyond crystallography: Diffractive imaging using coherent x-ray light sources
TL;DR: The revolutionary advances that are transforming x-ray sources and imaging in the 21st century are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
High power ultrafast lasers
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review progress in the development of high peak-power ultrafast lasers, and discuss in detail the design issues which determine the performance of these systems, and summarize some of the new scientific advances made possible by this technology, such as the generation of coherent femtosecond x-ray pulses, and the MeV-energy electron beams and high-energy ions.
