Extremely broadened high-order harmonics generated by the femtosecond pulses propagating through the filaments in air

Journal Article Ganeev, R A ; Institute of Electronics, Uzbekistan Academy of Sciences, Akademgorodok, 33, Dormon Yoli Street, Tashkent 100125 ; Kuroda, H ; ... - Applied Physics Letters

We demonstrate a considerable broadening of the harmonics generating in laser plasma using the laser pulses propagating through the filaments in air. A fourfold increase of harmonic bandwidth was achieved in the case of phase-modulated laser pulses, alongside with an increase in harmonic conversion efficiency (from 5x10{sup -6} to 1.2x10{sup -5}). We also present the studies of harmonic generation using phase-modulated pulses at different ranges of ellipticity of the polarization of laser beam.

Enhancement of high-order harmonic generation by a two-color field: Influence of propagation effects

Journal Article Schiessl, K ; Persson, E ; Burgdoerfer, J ; ... - Physical Review. A

Recent calculations of the response of a single atom subjected to a two-color laser pulse with the higher frequency being resonant with an excitation of the target atom revealed a significant enhancement of photoionization as well as high-order harmonic generation [K. Ishikawa, Phy. Rev. Lett. 91, 043002 (2003)]. We investigate the problem in the framework a fully quantum-mechanical pulse propagation algorithm and perform calculations for rare gases in the single-active-electron approximation. The enhancement of harmonic output compared to the corresponding one-color pulse remains intact for short propagation lengths, promising the feasibility of experimental realization. We also study weak second colorsmore »« less

Analysis of effects of macroscopic propagation and multiple molecular orbitals on the minimum in high-order harmonic generation of aligned CO{sub 2}

Journal Article Jin, Cheng ; Le, Anh-Thu ; Lin, C D - Physical Review. A

We report theoretical calculations of the effect of the multiple-orbital contribution in high-order harmonic generation (HHG) of aligned CO{sub 2} with the inclusion of macroscopic propagation of harmonic fields in the medium. Our results show very good agreement with recent experiments for the dynamics of the minimum in HHG spectra as laser intensity or alignment angle changes. Calculations are carried out to check how the position of the minimum in HHG spectra depends on the degrees of molecular alignment, laser-focusing conditions, and the effects of alignment-dependent ionization rates of the different molecular orbitals. These analyses help to explain why themore »« less

Medium propagation effects in high-order harmonic generation of Ar and N{sub 2}

Journal Article Cheng, Jin ; Le, Anh-Thu ; Lin, C D - Physical Review. A

We report theoretical calculations of high-order harmonic generation (HHG) by intense infrared lasers in atomic and molecular targets taking into account the macroscopic propagation of both fundamental and harmonic fields. On the examples of Ar and N{sub 2}, we demonstrate that these ab initio calculations are capable of accurately reproducing available experimental results with isotropic and aligned target media. We further present detailed analysis of HHG intensity and phase under various experimental conditions, in particular, as the wavelength of the driving laser changes. Most importantly, our results strongly support the factorization of HHG at the macroscopic level into a productmore »« less

Cherenkov high-order harmonic generation by multistep cascading in {chi}{sup (2)} nonlinear photonic crystal

Journal Article Ning, An ; Huaijin, Ren ; State Key Laboratory on Fiber Optic Local Area Communication Networks and Advanced Optical Communication Systems, Shanghai 200240 ; ... - Applied Physics Letters

We propose a scheme for efficient Cherenkov high-order harmonic generation. Second to fifth order harmonic wave are observed in a single periodically poled ferroelectric crystal in our experiment. The noncollinear high-order harmonic generation is produced via enhanced Cherenkov second harmonic cascaded with successive multistep sum-frequency generation with simultaneously longitudinal phase-matching. The emission angle and power dependencies are analyzed in detail experimentally, which coincide with theoretical predictions.
