Abstract
The continuous progress in the performances of light sources as well as detection techniques allows us to investigate and control the states of matter in even finer details. Light sources, ranging from the infrared (IR) to the extreme ultraviolet (XUV), are becoming increasingly coherent, intense, well characterized, and controlled. The shortest available light pulses are now significantly shorter than 1 fs [1]–[4], thus offering unique promise for studies of ultrafast electron dynamics.
