The understanding and precise control of electron dynamics in solids plays a key role for the development of new technologies. However, investigating the time-resolved dynamics on the timescale of femto- to attoseconds proves to be a persistent challenge. One way to overcome this issue is by optically probing the dynamics on the very same timescale. For this aim, isolated attosecond pulses (IAP) present a sharp and distinct measurement tool which is ideally suited to investigate these ultrafast mechanisms. Here, we present the pulse compression of 20µJ pulses at a central wavelength of 1030 nm and a width of 225 fs down to few cycle pulses which are used to generate XUV light by driving a high-harmonic generation process. Adjusting the stabilized carrier-envelope phase together with a short-pass filter allows to generate IAP. Combining the IAP with a copy of the driving field in an ultrashort pump-probe scheme enables the observation of electron dynamics in the attosecond time scale.
