Isolated attosecond pulse generation in a semi-infinite gas cell driven by time-gated phase matching. Light: Science & Applications, 13(1), 197. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41377-024-01564-5 2047-7538 http://hdl.handle.net/10366/159517 10.1038/s41377-024-01564-5 2047-7538 [EN]Isolated attosecond pulse (IAP) generation usually involves the use of short-medium gas cells operated at high pressures. In contrast, long-medium schemes at low pressures are commonly perceived as inherently unsuitable for IAP generation due to the nonlinear phenomena that challenge favourable phase-matching conditions. Here we provide clear experimental evidence on the generation of isolated extreme-ultraviolet attosecond pulses in a semi-infinite gas cell, demonstrating the use of extended-medium geometries for effective production of IAPs. To gain a deeper understanding we develop a simulation method for high-order harmonic generation (HHG), which combines nonlinear propagation with macroscopic HHG solving the 3D time-dependent Schrödinger equation at the single-atom level. Our simulations reveal that the nonlinear spatio-temporal reshaping of the driving field, observed in the experiment as a bright plasma channel, acts as a self-regulating mechanism boosting the phase-matching conditions for the generation of IAPs. eng info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess High-harmonic generation Nonlinear optics Ultrafast lasers Isolated attosecond pulse generation in a semi-infinite gas cell driven by time-gated phase matching info:eu-repo/semantics/article
