Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The shaping of the waveform of a two- or three-color driving laser pulse is essential for generating an ultrashort isolated attosecond pulse (IAP) from high-order harmonic generation, which can be implemented in two different ways, i.e., direct coherent synthesizing of electric fields with appropriate parameters (wavelength, intensity, carrier envelope phase, time delay), and superposition of fields undergoing a spectral phase shaping in frequency space view, which additionally results in a chirp and pulse-width broadening. In this work, we perform a comparative study on the IAP generation with these two schemes by virtue of a genetic algorithm, and two very meaningful conclusions are clarified. First, weighing the advantages and disadvantages of the two methods, the width and strength of IAPs optimized from two schemes are basically the same. More optimization parameters in the second method of laser shaping do not show an advantage in shortening width or enhancing the intensity of the IAP compared with the first one. Second, in each case, one can get the shortest IAP when the carrier envelope phases for each spectral component are not required to be precisely controlled. This study provides useful theoretical guidance for generating a shorter IAP with multicolor gating in the experiment.
