Generation of few-cycle and attosecond pulses and their use in probing ultrafast dynamics in gases and surfaces

A laser-based system to allow the temporal evolution of plasmonic fields on surfaces with attosecond resolution is presented. Sub 7fs carrier envelope phase stabilised infra-red (IR) pulses with 450μJ have been generated using a hollow fiber compression system utilising self phase modulation to prod...
