    Researchers extended the photon energy of circularly polarized high-harmonic generation (HHG) using dual-color lasers. This technique achieved the highest photon energy for circularly polarized HHG to date, enabling new applications in chiral spectroscopies.

    Area of Science:

    • Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Physics
    • Attosecond Science
    • X-ray Spectroscopy

    Background:

    • High-harmonic generation (HHG) offers a compact source of ultrashort light pulses.
    • Tailoring HHG polarization and photon energy is crucial for advanced applications.
    • Extending the energy range of circularly polarized HHG is a key research frontier.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To extend the photon energy range of circularly polarized high-harmonics.
    • To generate single-helicity high-harmonic generation (HHG) spectra.
    • To enable dynamic HHG chiral spectro-microscopies beyond the carbon K edge.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized counter-rotating femtosecond laser pulses at 0.8 µm and 2.0 μm.
    • Drove high-harmonic generation in helium and argon media.
