One of the major lines of development that started off with the invention of the laser was the search for ever shorter and more intense laser pulses. Due to a succession of new ideas and techniques the attainable laser pulse duration has dropped in several steps all the way to femtoseconds (10-15 s) and is entering today the attosecond (10-18 s) time regime. The spectacular progress in time resolution and also in peak intensity has provided new research tools and opened up exciting new applications in science and technology.
