摘要
We demonstrate that frequency-domain interferometry can be, performed in the extreme ultraviolet; rang using high-order hai harmonics. We first show that two phase-locked harmonic sources delayed in time can be generated in the same medium despite ionization, This gives insight into the dynamics of the generation and ionization processes. We then apply the technique to the study of the temporal evolution of an ultrashort laser-produced plasma at the femtosecond time scale.
