Universal behavior of tunneling time and barrier time-delay decoupling in attoclock measurements

The measurement of the tunneling time-delay is hotly debated and remains controversial. In previous works, we showed that a model that accurately describes the time-delay measured by the attoclock experiment in adiabatic and nonadiabatic field calibrations. In the present work, we show that the tunn...

description The measurement of the tunneling time-delay is hotly debated and remains controversial. In previous works, we showed that a model that accurately describes the time-delay measured by the attoclock experiment in adiabatic and nonadiabatic field calibrations. In the present work, we show that the tunneling time reveals a universal behavior with disentangled contributions. Even more remarkable is that the barrier tunneling time-delay can be convincingly defined and determined from the difference between the time-delay of adiabatic and nonadiabatic tunnel-ionization, which also show good agreement with experimental results. Furthermore, we illustrate that in the weak measurement limit, the barrier time-delay corresponds to the Larmor-clock time and the interaction time within the barrier.
