摘要: By partially overlapping two time-delayed orthogonally polarized multicycle laser pulses of the same carrier frequency, we construct an optical waveform whose polarization axis rotates slowly for consecutive cycles. This unique field tunnel-ionizes atoms and accelerates freed electrons to different directions at instants. Classical trajectory Monto Carlo simulations support resulting angle-resolved photoelectron momentum distribution. Taking advantage this field, investigate characteristics triggered by quarters cycle explore Coulomb focusing effect on traveling along trajectories. Our experiment using a polarization-skewed near-infrared pulse verifies numerical demonstrates feasibility retrieving subcycle dynamics with pulses.
