High harmonic generation with few-cycle pulses

This thesis studies the response of atoms and molecules to intense few-cycle laser pulses. It is the extremely high frequency dipole radiation generated from such a response that is of interest, both for its exploitation towards generating isolated attosecond pulses and because of the information su...
