Extreme-ultraviolet pulses as short as 5 fs, produced by high-order harmonic generation and selected by a time-delay compensated monochromator, were fully reconstructed thanks to an advanced ptychographic technique, while most commonly used reconstruction methods fail. These pulses constitute the shortest extreme ultraviolet pulses ever achieved via a time-delay compensated monochromator.
