Isolated attosecond pulse generation with the stability against the carrier-envelope phase shift and with the high-beam quality from CO gas medium

We theoretically investigate the isolated attosecond pulse generation with a 1300-nm infrared few-cycle laser pulse from the CO medium. It is found that the supercontinuum in the plateau from CO in the microscopic level can be generated for nearly all the carrier-envelop phase(CEP) of the driving pulse. The macroscopic investigation shows that when the molecular axis is parallel to the electric field, the supercontinuum can be phase-matched in broader spectral range than the antiparallel case and achieve a good beam quality with the divergence angle of 0.2 mrad, which benefits for some potential applications of ultrafast detections with high spatial and temporal resolutions.
