Abstract
We demonstrate that the characteristics of the high-order harmonic spectra generated by few-cycle carrier-envelope phase-stabilized pulses can be finely adjusted by controlling the time-dependent ellipticity. The experimental measurements show evidence for the generation of single, pairs, and trains of attosecond pulses by controlling the time window of linear polarization of the driving pulses. The influence of the carrier-envelope phase on the generation process in different confinement configurations is interpreted and analyzed using a nonadiabatic stationary phase model. We show that the xuv emission depends critically on particular aspects of the fundamental electric field that allows us to steer the electron trajectories on the time scale of tens of attoseconds.
