Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Using a Ti:Sa amplifier and filamentation non-linear optics, we have succeeded in simultaneous generation of ultrashort pulses at the center wavelengths of 264, 198, 159, and 133 nm. Transform-limited pulse widths estimated from the observed spectra are found to be less than 10 fs. We measured cross-correlation traces between 198 and 159 nm, and 198 and 133 nm, and found that the observed traces exhibit a Gaussian distribution with a full width at half maximum of 18 fs. The sub-20 fs time-resolution is unprecedented in the corresponding wavelength regions. We have successfully applied this light source to time-resolved photoelectron imaging and observed ultrafast photodissociation reaction of carbon disulfide in real time.
