Ultrafast Control of Electrons in Materials with the Electric Field of Light
Electronics technologies rely on the control of electric current in solid-state devices. Here, we review the feasibility of generating and controlling electric current in semiconductors and insulators with few-cycle optical waveforms, within a single cycle of light, and on a timescale of 1 femtosecond.
