Abstract

We determined the carrier-envelope (“absolute”) phase of linearly polarized few-cycle laser pulses by measuring the energy-resolved asymmetry of electron emission from noble gases. The Gouy phase shift in the laser focus is also measured, providing the first full spatiotemporal depiction of the electric field in the whole focal region.
