Effect of Carrier Envelope Phase on High-Order Harmonic Generation from Solid

The dependence of harmonic emission from a solid on the carrier envelope phase (CEP) is discussed by numerically solving the time-dependent Schr?dinger equation. The harmonic spectra periodically exhibit three distinct oscillating structures, which indicate the different dependences of the cutoff energies on the CEP. Furthermore,with time-dependent population imaging and the populations of different energy bands, the underlying physical mechanism is explored.
