Short term physics
Pump-probe technology with ultrashort pulse lasers
The short-time physics (also ultrafast physics , femtosecond physics or Attosecond ) is dedicated to dynamic processes in the range of micro (10 -6 (10) to atto- -18 run) seconds. This includes currents, chemical reactions, ultrashort laser pulses and electrical processes. Laser pulses in the attosecond range, so-called attosecond lasers , could be both generated and detected for the first time by Ferenc Krausz and Paul Corkum . Other scientists in the field of short-term physics are Anne L'Huillier ,J. Roy Taylor , Hubert Schardin , Manfred Hugenschmidt and Ingolf Hertel .
