Abstract
By numerically solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation, we theoretically investigate the dynamics of the low-energy photoelectrons ionized by a single attosecond pulse in the presence of an infrared laser field. The obtained photoelectron momentum distributions exhibit complicated interference structures. With the semiclassical model, the originations for the different types of the interference structures are unambiguously identified. Moreover, by changing the time delay between the attosecond pulse and the infrared laser field, these interferences could be selectively enhanced or suppressed. This enables us to extract information about the ionization dynamics encoded in the interference structures. As an example, we show that the phase of the electron wave-packets ionized by the linearly and circularly polarized attosecond pulses can be extracted from the interference structures of the direct and the near-forward rescattering electrons.
