Generation and characterization of few-pulse attosecond pulse trains at 100kHz repetition rate (1908.07744v1)

Abstract: Many experiments in attosecond science will benefit from attosecond pulses at high repetition rates with sufficient photon flux for pump-probe experiments. We use 7fs, 800nm pulses from a non-collinear optical parametric chirped pulse amplification (NOPCPA) laser system to generate few-pulse attosecond pulse trains (APTs) in the extreme ultraviolet (XUV) at a repetition rate of 100kHz. The pulse trains have been fully characterized by recording FROG-CRAB (Frequency-Resolved Optical Gating for Complete Reconstruction of Attosecond Bursts) traces with a velocity map imaging spectrometer.
