摘要: 2023年诺贝尔物理学奖被授予皮埃尔•阿戈斯蒂尼、费伦茨•克劳斯和安妮•吕利耶,以表彰他们在阿秒脉冲的实验实现上作出的先驱性贡献。从电磁波的概念孕育之初到光电效应的揭示,再到激光与高次谐波的发现,人类渐渐揭示了光与物质交织舞蹈的深层复杂性。阿秒脉冲技术如同一把精致的钥匙,解锁了之前无法触及的物理世界的极短时间尺度的奥秘。如今,阿秒脉冲技术已广泛应用于能源、信息科技、医学等领域的研究,为我们提供了一种强大的探测手段。随着技术的不断发展和完善,我们有理由相信,在不远的将来它将在基础科学的探索和工业的革新中,产生更多意想不到的突破和飞跃。

Abstract: In 2023, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Pierre Agostini, Ferenc Krausz, and Anne L'Huillier in recognition of their exceptional experimental achievements in the field of attosecond light pulses. From the inception of the concept of electromagnetic waves to the unveiling of the photoelectric effect, and onward to the discovery of lasers and high-order harmonics, humanity has gradually revealed the complex interplay between light and matter. Attosecond pulse technology, akin to a finely crafted key, has unlocked the mysteries of the physical world's shortest time scales. Today, attosecond pulse technology is widely applied in research across fields such as energy, information technology, and medicine, providing a powerful tool for exploration. With ongoing refinement and enhancement, we have every reason to believe that in the near future, it will bring about unexpected breakthroughs and leaps in both fundamental scientific inquiry and industrial innovation.
