Strong-field approximation reveals complex space-time orbits in high-harmonic generation and above-threshold ionization. Elliptical polarization creates similar staircase spectra from identical orbit pairs.

Area of Science:

  • Quantum optics
  • Strong-field physics

Background:

  • High-harmonic generation (HHG) and high-order above-threshold ionization (HATI) are fundamental processes in strong-field physics.
  • Understanding the underlying electron dynamics is crucial for controlling and interpreting these phenomena.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the complex space-time orbits governing HHG and HATI spectra.
  • To investigate the spectral features arising from elliptical polarization.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing the strong-field approximation (SFA).
  • Employing saddle-point analysis of integrals to identify complex space-time orbits.
  • Calculating HHG and HATI spectra for elliptical polarization.

Main Results:

Related Experiment Videos

  • HHG and HATI spectra exhibit plateau structures under elliptical polarization.
  • These plateaus transform into similar staircase-like features.
  • Each step in the staircase corresponds to a distinct pair of nearly identical space-time orbits.
  • Conclusions:

    • Complex space-time orbits provide a unified framework for understanding HHG and HATI spectra.
    • Elliptical polarization leads to a universal staircase structure in both phenomena.
    • The identified orbit pairs offer insights into the electron dynamics and spectral formation.
