We present time-resolved reflectivity measurements on a plasma mirror and demonstrate the contrast improvement of sub-10-fs pulses. Detailed characterization of the spatial peak and the average reflectivity, the spatial and temporal properties of the reflected pulses for p - and also for s -polarization are discussed. A complete third-order correlation is measured to compare the temporal structures of the pulses before and after the plasma mirror. Simulation of the hydrodynamic expansion of the plasma supports the measured pulse properties after the reflection.
