Phys. Rev. Lett. 89, 127401 (2002) [4 pages]Role of the Carrier-Envelope Offset Phase of Few-Cycle Pulses in Nonperturbative Resonant Nonlinear OpticsReceived 11 January 2002; published 28 August 2002 We study the influence of the carrier-envelope offset phase of few-cycle pulses on nonperturbative resonant extreme nonlinear optics in a semiconductor. If the Rabi frequency becomes comparable to the light frequency, the different Rabi sidebands interfere around twice the laser center frequency, giving rise to a signal which strongly depends on the carrier-envelope offset phase. This signature should be measurable in GaAs samples. © 2002 The American Physical Society URL:
