Deskripsi

Ultrafast extreme ultra-violet sources are widely used to study material properties but the polarization control necessary for certain applications has proven difficult. Here, the authors propose a scheme to generate circularly or highly elliptically polarized XUV pulses using a relativistic plasma mirror.
