Angular resolved above-threshold ionization spectrum of an atom in IR+XUV orthogonally polarized two-color laser...

We investigate the above-threshold ionization (ATI) process of atoms exposed to the IR+XUV orthogonally polarized two-color laser fields by using the frequency-domain theory. It is shown that there exists a dip structure in each plateau of the angular resolved ATI spectrum. The dip structure in the first plateau is attributed to the fact that the electron cannot absorb one XUV photon when its emission direction is perpendicular to the XUV laser polarization, while the one in the second plateau is attributed to the coherent results of different channels. The emergence of dip structure is associated directly with the XUV laser field. Furthermore, by applying the saddle-point approximation, it is found that the fringes on the spectrum is caused by the interference of two trajectories for different saddle-points in the IR laser field. Finally, it is found that, in the high energy region, the probability of ATI spectrum is mainly determined by the XUV laser field, and the width of each plateau is mainly determined by the IR laser field; on the other hand, the ATI spectrum of the low energy region is only determined by the IR laser field.
