Interferometry,a key technique in modern precision measurements,has been used for length measurement in engineering metrology and astronomy.An analogous time-domain interferometric technique would represent a significant complement to spatial domain applications and require the manipulation of interference on extreme time and energy scales.Here,we report an all-optical interferometer using laser-driven high order harmonics as attosecond temporal slits.By controlling the phase of the temporal slits with an external field,a time domain interferometer that preserves both attosecond temporal resolution and hundreds of meV energy resolution is implemented.We apply this exceptional temporal resolution to reconstruct the waveform of an arbitrarily polarized optical pulse,and utilize the provided energy resolution to interrogate the abnormal character of the transition dipole near the Cooper minimum in argon.This novel attosecond interferometry paves the way for high precision measurements in the time-energy domain using all-optical approaches.

一五年前,当我接触到王啸峰小说的时候,我立即感到这是一个文学叙述的“怪胎”,面对他“驳杂迷幻”的小说文本叙述,在阅读、接受的层面,很容易就会令人在审美上产生“慌不择路”甚至不知所措的感觉.我想,为此我必须调整自己的阅读方式,或者重新整饬自己的小说理念,以及自己对事物的认知和理解方式,来仔细地面对他的文本.王啸峰两本重要的小说集《隐秘花园》和《浮生流年》,分别由王啸峰的“乡党”汪政和王尧两位江苏籍评论家作序.我在系统地阅读这两本集子时,刻意地先规避这两位评论者对王啸峰小说的判断和评价,我担心我没有“定力”,
