Abstract :
We observe half-cycle cutoffs in above-threshold ionization spectra using carrier-envelope phase-stabilized, sub-two-cycle infrared pulses. The waveform-dependent photoelectron spectra allow the retrieval of a resonance-like structure in the cross section for elastic backscattering from Xe+.
