The availability of high-energy pulses with durations shorter than the period of their carrier frequency (sub-cycle) will reveal new regimes of strong-field light–matter interactions. Parametric ...

40 years ago, legendary synth designer Wolfgang Palm introduced the world to wavetable synthesis with his PPG Wave 2 synth. Unlike the static waveforms of an analogue oscillator, a wavetable ...

The conventional way of generating optical waveforms relies on in-phase and quadrature (IQ) modulation of a continuous-wave (CW) laser tone. In this case, the bandwidth of the resulting optical ...

Researchers propose a novel scheme to produce isolated attosecond pulses using relativistic electron mirrors, paving the way for next-generation ultrafast spectroscopy. Capturing nature’s fastest ...
