Attosecond coherent control of free-electron wave functions using semi-infinite light fields

Manipulation of the electron–photon coupling is crucial for quantum circuits and exploration of electronic motions and nuclear phenomena. Here the authors discuss a scheme to coherently control the electron wave function from attosecond to zeptosecond timescales by using semi-infinite light fields....
