Controlling of the harmonic generation induced by the Berry curvature

High-order harmonic generation in solid state has attracted a lot of attentions. The Berry curvature (BC), a geometrical property of the Bloch energy band, plays an important role for the harmonic generation in crystal. As we all know, the influence of BC on the harmonic emission has been investigated before and BC is simplified as a 1D structure. However, many other materials including MoS₂ are 2D materials. In this work, we extend the investigation for BC to 2D structure and get a generalized equation, which not only gives a new method to control the harmonic emission with BC, but also gives a deeper understanding for the influence of the BC. We show the ability to control the harmonic emission related to the BC using the orthogonal two-color (OTC) laser field. By tuning the delay of OTC laser field, one can steer the trajectory of electrons and modulate the emission of harmonics. This study can provide us a deeper insight into the role of the BC which is difficult to be measured experimentally.
