Abstract

In the paper we propose a method for characterizing VUV pulse(s) in a bichromatic ionization setup. The scheme is based on s-shell ionization by joint action of circularly polarized fundamental harmonic and linearly polarized second one. The advantage of the proposed approach is the existence of kinematic (geometrical) zeros of partial amplitudes which positions can be extracted with minimal number of theoretical (spectroscopic) assumptions and therefore they may serve as natural reference points in measuring the relative phase and amplitude of the harmonics. In the paper, we investigate a general possible geometry setup with more detailed consideration of the edge cases and present calculation and numerical stimulation for helium ionization as an illustrative example.
