The recent development of Homochromatic Attosecond Streaking (HAS) has enabled a novel, highly precise method for ultrafast metrology of attosecond electron pulses as well as for real-time sampling of the instantaneous field waveforms of light transients. Here, we evaluate the potential of HAS as a method for precisely sampling the field waveform of non-phase-stabilized, single-cycle transients of light. We show that the extreme nonlinearity of field emission allows our technique to isolate and track the waveform of a single carrier-envelope phase (CEP) setting whose field dynamics results in the most energetic electron cutoff. Our results establish HAS as a robust, compact, all-solid-state method for characterizing light fields with attosecond-level precision and as a powerful tool in light field synthesis.
