Exploration of High-Harmonic Generation from the CS_2 Molecule by the Lewenstein Method in Two-Color Circularly Polarized Laser Field

The high harmonic generation(HHG) from the CS_2 molecule in intense laser fields is investigated using the extended Lewenstein method. The initial state is the highest-occupied molecular orbital of the CS_2 molecule,which can be well described by Gaussian wave packet using GAMESS-UK package. Compared with the case of the elliptical laser, the HHG can be extended in two-color circularly polarized laser field. The time-frequency analysis and classical electron trajectory as well as the ionization yield curve are also presented to further explain the underlying mechanism. After adding a static electric field on the z-direction, the single quantum path control is realized and the supercontinuum spectra are obtained. Moreover,an isolated 110 as pulse can be obtained by superposing the harmonics from 130 th to 180 th order.

Electron dynamics and harmonics radiation due to electron oscillation driven by laser standing wave

The electron dynamics and harmonics radiation spectra due to electron oscillation driven by laser standing wave (SW) have been investigated considering a single electron mode. It is found that electron can pass through or be reflected from laser SW as electron is shot into laser SW from antinodes plane with initial velocity parallel to electric field of SW, and for electron incidence at arbitrary plane the attraction plane of electron trajectories will transfer from nodes plane to antinodes plane if initial electron kinetic energy exceeds a critical value. Further, the harmonics emission due to electron oscillation during passing through laser SW is considered in two cases of electron incidence plane at nodes and antinodes. In case of electron incidence at nodes, the spectrum of radiation is redshifted for backward radiation and blueshifted for forward radiation, and broadening of spectrum is noticed. These effects are much more pronounced at higher laser intensities. However, for case with electron incidence at antinodes, these phenomena vanish.     

Generation of intense water window X-ray pulses by superposition of an initial state of the helium atom driven by a three-color field

We theoretically study the generation of high-order harmonics and attosecond pulses from the superposition of an initial state in helium atom driven by a three-color laser field. It is shown that when the initial state is chosen to be a single electronic state, due to the rapid depletion of the ground state, the efficiency of the spectral continuum will be decreased as the initial state increases. When the initial state is chosen to be the coherent superposition of the ground state and an arbitrary excited state, the efficiency of the spectral continuum can be enhanced compared to that from the single initial state. Further, with the optimization of the three-color laser beam, not only can the harmonic cutoff be extended to the water window X-ray region but also the spectral continuum is contributed by the single harmonic emission peak with the dominant short quantum path. Consequently, two combinations of the laser parameters can be found to generate the water window spectral continuum. By properly superposing some harmonics on the spectral continuum, a number of intense water window pulses with the duration of sub-35 as can be produced.

Harmonic emission spectra and attosecond pulse generation from helium atom driven by the mid-infrared nonhomogeneous field

The generations of the high-order harmonics and the attosecond pulses from helium atom driven by the mid-infrared symmetric and asymmetric nonhomogeneous field have been theoretically investigated. It is found that (i) due to the surface plasmon polaritons in the metallic nanostructure, the extensions of the harmonics from the positive and the negative laser amplitudes, or only from the positive laser amplitude can be found for the cases of symmetric and asymmetric nonhomogeneous fields, respectively. (ii) The wavelength scalings of the harmonic cutoff and the harmonic yield show that the harmonic cutoff and the harmonic yield can be extended and decreased with the increase in laser wavelength, respectively. However, due to the limit of the gap size of the nanostructure, the threshold value of the harmonic cutoff can be achieved for a given gap size of the nanostructure. (iii) By adding a weak terahertz field to the mid-infrared fundamental field with the asymmetric nonhomogeneous effect, the intensity of the harmonic plateau can be enhanced by one order of magnitude, showing a 1280?eV supercontinuum with the single quantum trajectory contribution. Finally, by properly superposing the harmonics, some attosecond X-ray pulses shorter than 35 as can be produced.
