Abstract

First experimental observation of the time-dependent build-up of an asymmetric Fano resonance achieved by using a tunable temporal gate to interupt the auto-ionization process of a correlated 2-electron excited state in He with a strong laser field.

A strong-field-ionization-enabled temporal gate for resolving ultrafast dynamics

Alexander Blättermann, Andreas Kaldun, Veit Stooß +8 more

We create a tunable temporal gate by strong-field depletion of a previously excited two-electron system. This allows us to temporally resolve the emergence of a Fano resonance – a longstanding quest in attosecond science.

Ultrafast Laser Control of Absorption and Emission via the Fano Phase

Thomas Pfeifer

Transmission of attosecond-pulsed light through Helium gas driven by few-cycle laser fields of tunable intensity allows to temporally resolve and control the process of absorption. The results enabled the understanding of Fano resonances in the time domain and corresponding scientific applications.

Watching the emergence of a Fano resonance in doubly excited helium

Alexander Blättermann, Andreas Kaldun, Veit Stooß +8 more

We report on the experimental observation of the buildup of the 2s2p Fano resonance in helium in the time domain, which has been under theoretical investigation for more than a decade. The emergence of the absorption line is temporally resolved by interrupting the natural decay of the excited state via saturated strong-field ionization at a variable time delay. We compare the experimental data with full ab-initio simulations to validate the time-gating by strong-field ionization and thereby confirm the recently developed theory for the formation of Fano line-profiles.

Time-domain Physics in Doubly-excited States and Phase Control of Fano Resonances

Thomas Pfeifer

Doubly-excited states of helium were coherently excited by attosecond-pulsed extreme-ultraviolet light, probed and controlled with near-visible intensity-tunable laser pulses. The results enabled the understanding of Fano resonances in the time domain and corresponding scientific applications.

Fano Resonances in the Time Domain

The Fano phase formalism enables measurement and control of phase and amplitude of an emitting dipole. Here, we use this formalism to measure and understand the dynamics of bound atomic states in strong laser fields.
