Abstract
Coupling ultrashort optical field waveforms to ultrafast molecular vibrations in an impulsively excited Raman medium is shown to enable the generation of frequency-tunable sub-half-cycle multigigawatt light pulses. In a gas-filled hollow waveguide, this coupled-state dynamics is strongly assisted by soliton effects, which help to suppress temporal stretching of subcycle optical pulses, providing efficient Raman-type impulsive excitation of ultrafast molecular vibrations over large propagation paths.
