A Decade in Attosecond Science
Attosecond light pulses are a technology generated by electrons, for electrons. By harnessing these ultrashort pulses, we can “see” electron motion in real time – which, if you are in the business of developing high-speed electronic components, is a valuable insight. Electrons hold matter together – they determine the properties of the matter and the path of chemistry and biology – and keeping track of them requires dedicated optical elements. Observing the m...
