Recent development of high-power ultrashort-pulsed laser technologies has made it possible to increase the light field intensity as high as the magnitude of a Coulombic field within atoms and molecules, and afforded the basis of the birth of the new interdisciplinary research field called “Intense Laser Science.” It has become possible to control molecular processes by intense laser fields, and a new research area of “Attochemistr” is about to emerge.
