We demonstrate generation of the shortest reported 11fs dark pulses using the coherent absorption process on a plasmonic absorber with a gating pulse. The dark pulses appear as a power dip on the envelope of a long carrier pulse and are characterized using the cross-correlation technique. The princi...
