Attosecond optical pulse generation, along with the related process
of high-order harmonic generation, is redefining ultrafast physics
and chemistry. A practical understanding of attosecond optics
requires significant background information and foundational theory
to make full use of these cutting-edge lasers and advance the
technology toward the next generation of ultrafast lasers.
Fundamentals of Attosecond Optics provides the first focused
introduction to the field. The author presents the underlying
concepts and techniques required to enter the field, as well as
recent research advances that are driving the field forward. A
stand-alone textbook for courses on attosecond optics and the
interaction of matter with ultrafast, high-power lasers, the book
begins with basic theory and gradually advances to more complex
ideas. Using both semi-classical models and quantum mechanics
theories, the author explains foundational concepts and mechanisms
including femtosecond lasers, high-order harmonic generation, and
the technological leap that inspired attosecond pulse generation.
The book introduces techniques for generating attosecond train
using the basis of high-order harmonics, followed by an explanation
of gating methods for extracting single isolated pulses. Chapters
examine the connection between attosecond pulses and high harmonic
generation, the use of driving lasers as key tools in attosecond
generation, the mechanism of chirped pulse amplification, and the
generation of few-cycle pulses. The book looks at carrier-envelope
phase stabilization and the theoretical foundations for single atom
and dipole phase response. It discusses propagation effects,
introducing several approaches for improving phase matching;
attosecond pulse generation and characterization, covering
attosecond pulse train and single isolated pulses; and several
examples of experimental applications for attosecond pulses.
