The direct evaluation of attosecond chirp from a streaking measurement

Optics 2015-05-20 v2 Quantum Physics

Abstract

We derive an analytical expression, from classical electron trajectories in a laser field, that relates the breadth of a streaked photoelectron spectrum to the group-delay dispersion of an isolated attosecond pulse. Based on this analytical expression, we introduce a simple, efficient and robust procedure to instantly extract the attosecond pulse's chirp from the streaking measurement.
