Ultrafast Electron Dynamics in Solar Energy Conversion
TL;DR: The light-induced electron processes underlying the function of several molecular and hybrid materials currently under development for solar energy applications in dye or quantum dot-sensitized solar cells, polymer-fullerene polymer solar cells," organometal halide perovskite solar cells", and finally some photocatalytic systems are discussed.

Ultrafast Spectroscopy: State of the Art and Open Challenges.
TL;DR: This paper first reviews the progress in ultrafast optics, which has enabled the generation of broadly tunable light pulses with duration down to a few optical cycles, and discusses the pump-probe technique, showing examples of its capability to combine very high time resolution, down to the attosecond regime, with broad spectral coverage.

Theory of high-harmonic generation by low-frequency laser fields.
TL;DR: A simple, analytic, and fully quantum theory of high-harmonic generation by low-frequency laser fields is presented and the exact quantum-mechanical formula for the harmonic cutoff that differs from the phenomenological law Ip+3.17Up is presented.

Not-so-resonant, resonant absorption.
TL;DR: When an intense electromagnetic wave is incident obliquely on a sharply bounded overdense plasma, strong energy absorption can be accounted for by the electrons that are dragged into the vacuum and sent back into the plasma with velocities vapprox.

TL;DR: A compact 20 Hz repetition-rate mid-IR OPCPA system operating at a central wavelength of 3900 nm with the tail-to-tail spectrum extending over 600 nm and delivering 8 mJ pulses that are compressed to 83 fs opens a range of unprecedented opportunities for tabletop ultrafast science.

Ultrafast X-ray Pulses from Laser-Produced Plasmas
TL;DR: A high-speed streak camera detector was used to determine the duration of these x-ray pulses, and computer simulations of the plasmas agree with the experimental results, predicting that brighter and more efficient x-rays are obtained by the use of more intense laser pulses.
