For a real, meaningful pump-probe experiment with attosecond temporal resolution, an isolated attosecond pulse is in demand. In this vein we report the generation of an isolated ~ 148 attosecond pulse duration radiation pulse at 0.1 angstrom wavelength using current enhanced self-amplified spontaneous emission free electron laser. We consider the 10-GeV PAL-XFEL e-beam for enhanced self-amplified spontaneous emission (ESASE) scheme. In ESASE, X-ray SASE FEL is combined with a femtosecond laser system. An 800 nm wavelength, 5 fs FWHM carrier envelope phase stabilized laser was employed in ESASE scheme.
