摘要
Optimal pulse compression following spectral broadening in a noble gas-filled hollow core fiber is a critical step towards producing isolated attosecond pulses. Here we present a systematic pulse shaping method based on the optimal selection of chirped mirrors and on the optimization of their angle of incidence. Feedback from second harmonic frequency resolved optical gating measurements is used to compute the optimal chirped mirror configuration of the next iteration in a genetic algorithm. Sub-5 fs pulses were achieved after a few iterations.
