Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we have developed an optical function generator (OFG) that can shape an arbitrary electric field waveform with a pulse width in the attosecond range using the novel amplitude / phase control method proposed by our group. We experimentally demonstrated generation of a train of ultrashort pulses with a Fourier transform limit pulse duration of 1.4 fs. We also constructed the main device of OFG that can generate a train of ultrashort pulses with a pulse duration of 400 as.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究成果は光軸上にガラスを配置し光を空間的に分けることなく同軸上で物質分散(正分散)を加えることのみにより,アト秒域の光電場を生成できることである.この学術的意義は,本手法が分散補償の限界というパラダイムを打破できることである.これまで装置の複雑・高価さと限られた相互作用環境を理由にごく一部の研究グループでしか行われていなかったアト秒科学が他分野の多くの研究者にとって身近に広く展開されていくと期待される.
