China has launched the construction of a key scientific infrastructure to generate attosecond laser, which will help scientists “see” the ultrafast particles in the microscopic world and facilitate cutting-edge research and high-tech industries.

The Advanced Attosecond Laser Infrastructure (AALI), including facilities in Dongguan in south China and Xi’an in northwest China’s Shaanxi Province, is constructed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).

The AALI project is planned to set up 10 beamlines covering wavelengths in extreme ultraviolet, soft X-ray and terahertz radiation, along with 22 research terminals, forming a comprehensive attosecond science facility in the next five years, according to the Institute of Physics of CAS.
