Abstract
This talk will review some of the highlights in ultrafast science moving from femtosecond to attosecond pulse generation and its major impact in fields as diverse as semiconductor photonics and chemical reactions, material processing and extreme nonlinear optics with VUV and soft-X-ray generation, imaging and microscopy, frequency metrology and fundamental quantum mechanical processes that have never been measured before.
