Eliminating the dipole phase in attosecond pulse characterization using Rydberg wave packets

Pabst, Stefan and Dahlström, Jan Marcus LU (2016) In Physical Review A 94(1).
Abstract
We propose a technique to fully characterize the temporal structure of extreme ultraviolet pulses by ionizing a bound coherent electronic wave packet. The influence of the dipole phase, which is the main obstacle for state-of-the-art pulse characterization schemes, can be eliminated by angle integration of the photoelectron spectrum. We show that in particular, atomic Rydberg wave packets are ideal and that wave packets involving multiple electronic states provide redundant information that can be used to cross-check the consistency of the phase reconstruction.
