Polarization gated high order harmonic generation approaching the single attosecond pulse emission

The confinement of high-harmonic-generation pulse train by modulation of the fundamental beam polarization is studied temporally and spectrally. We observe a clear effect, being the maximal confinement compatible with l-or-2 subfemtosecond pulse emission.
