Attosecond radiation generation from a laser-irradiated nano foil. — •Hartmut Ruhl and Karl Ulrich Bamberg — Theresienstrasse 37, 80333 Munich

A laser irradiated nano foil can emit high frequency radiation with an attosecond time structure. We will present results from a numerical investigation and compare them to a nonlinear analytical model in 1D. A thorough account of the radiation signature of the foil will be given. In addition, self-field effects expected from the system at large laser intensities (a>100) will be discussed. It will be shown that the foil can become an efficient radiator.
