TLDR
The investigation of the fringes makes possible interferometry on the attosecond time scale and produces a situation in which one and the same electron encounters a single and a double slit at the same time.Abstract:
A new scheme for a double-slit experiment in the time domain is presented. Phase-stabilized few-cycle laser pulses open one to two windows (slits) of attosecond duration for photoionization. Fringes in the angle-resolved energy spectrum of varying visibility depending on the degree of which-way information are measured. A situation in which one and the same electron encounters a single and a double slit at the same time is observed. The investigation of the fringes makes possible interferometry on the attosecond time scale. From the number of visible fringes, for example, one derives that the slits are extended over about 500 as.read more

TL;DR: It is demonstrated how the subcycle evolution of the electric field of light can be used to control the motion of bound electrons and provides evidence of its usefulness in controlling reaction dynamics.

Attosecond control of electrons emitted from a nanoscale metal tip
TL;DR: The results indicate that the attosecond techniques developed with atoms and molecules can also be used with solids, and foresee subfemtosecond, subnanometre probing of collective electron dynamics in solid-state systems ranging in scale from mesoscopic solids to clusters and to single protruding atoms.

Above-threshold ionization by few-cycle pulses
TL;DR: The theoretical description and experimental methods and results for above-threshold ionization (ATI) by few-cycle pulses are reviewed in this article, where a pulse is referred to as a fewcycle pulse if its detailed shape, parametrized by its carrier-envelope phase, affects its interaction with matter.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a systematic account of optical coherence theory within the framework of classical optics, as applied to such topics as radiation from sources of different states of coherence, foundations of radiometry, effects of source coherence on the spectra of radiated fields, and scattering of partially coherent light by random media.
