Abstract

Conversion of 1% of the fundamental pulse intensity to another wavelength before high-harmonic generation is shown theoretically to quadruple the period of the attosecond pulse train in the cutoff photon-energy region. In simulations, a 24-fs pulse can produce an isolated attosecond pulse.
