Abstract

We experimentally and numerically control high-harmonic generation (HHG) by time delaying variable segments of a few-cycle driving laser spectrum. In this configuration combs of fractional high harmonics can be produced by interference of two temporally spaced attosecond pulse trains. We explain the observed beating of the high-harmonic intensity with the time delay and study the influence of the spectral segmentation on the high harmonics. By the implementation of additional carrier-envelope phase (CEP) control, we extend the control configuration and demonstrate independent multi-parameter controllability of HHG purely enabled by the CEP and the time delay between two spectral segments. We present how specific properties of the fractional harmonics can be optimized. Analyzing the measured fractional harmonic combs by a spectral interferometry method, we find that the relative phase between the two contributing attosecond pulse trains can be freely set by the CEP of the driving laser field. We also discuss how, in the future, this method can be applied to simultaneously measure transient dispersion and absorption in the extreme ultraviolet spectral region.
