Tracking ultrafast dynamics by sub-20-fs UV pulses generated in the lab open atmosphere

This study describes a simple method to generate sub-20 fs UV-pulses (264 nm) by third-harmonic generation, in an air-plasma filament formed after focusing the fundamental 800 nm beam directly in the lab open-atmosphere. The generated pulses are applied to track the relaxation through the conical in...
