TL;DR: The rapidly decreasing microscopic single-atom yield, predicted for harmonics driven by longer-wavelength lasers, is compensated macroscopically by an increased optimal pressure for phase matching and a rapidly decreasing reabsorption of the generated X-rays, making tabletop, fully coherent, multi-keV X-ray sources feasible.

TL;DR: This work extends bright, spatially coherent, attosecond pulses into the soft x-ray region for the first time and generates the broadest bright coherent bandwidth to date from any light source, small or large, that is consistent with a single subfemtosecond burst.

TL;DR: A 100 kHz 2D IR spectrometer using a ytterbium all normal dispersion fiber oscillator as a common source for the pump and seed beams of a MgO:PPLN OPCPA allowing for data collection at 100 kHz.

TL;DR: In this article, the phase-sensitive extreme ultraviolet imaging reflectometer was proposed to measure surface topography, layer thicknesses, and interface quality, as well as dopant concentrations and profiles.

TL;DR: This work uses a femtosecond laser to directly transfer spin polarization from one element to another in a half-metallic Heusler material, Co2MnGe, and finds that the magnetization of Co is enhanced, while that of Mn rapidly quenches.
