Abstract

The theoretical description and the experimental methods and results for above-threshold ionization (ATI) by few-cycle pulses are reviewed. A pulse is referred to as a few-cycle pulse if its detailed shape, parametrized by its carrier-envelope phase, affects its interaction with matter. Angular-resolved ATI spectra are analysed with the customary strong-field approximation (SFA) as well as the numerical solution of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation (TDSE). After a general discussion of the characteristics and the description of few-cycle pulses, the behaviour of the ATI spectrum under spatial inversion is related to the shape of the laser field. The ATI spectrum both for the direct and for the…
