Abstract :
We report on the first experimental evidence of the destructive and constructive interference of high harmonics generated in a mixed gas of He and Ne, which offers a novel method for coherent control of high harmonic generation, measuring harmonic phases, and observing the underlying attosecond electron dynamics.
