Abstract
With waveform-reproducible light pulses, lasting only a few field oscillations, it is now possible to exert considerable degree of control on microscopic processes such as generation of extreme ultraviolet pulses [1], ionization of atoms [2] or the motion of electrons inside a molecule [3]. It is possible to realize light based attosecond streak cameras [4] that allow tracing of attosecond dynamics in atoms [5] and in the condensed matter [6] to sample field waveforms [7] and to reproducibly trigger and probe the motion of electrons in the valence shell of ions [8].
