Cover Story: This concept overcomes the coherence time barrier and results in ultrashort pulses in X-ray Free Electron Lasers. As well as a numerical illustration, the results of the first experimental test at the soft X-ray FEL user facility FLASH are presented. The measured pulse duration approaches 1 fs (FWHM) with pulse energies of 1.5 µJ at a wavelength of 5 nm. The application of the proposed technique to hard X-ray FELs can open the way to generate extremely short pulses, in the range of a few tens of attoseconds. View this paper
