Abstract
By solving a two-dimensional, time-dependent Schrödinger equation, we investigate high-order harmonic generation for the H2+ molecular ion in orthogonally polarized two-color laser pulses. We find that harmonic generation depends on the frequency ratio n=ωyωx. When the wavelength is 800 nm and n = 1.2, the harmonic plateau becomes smoother, and the quantum orbital interference decreases. We change the fundamental wavelength and find that the harmonic spectrum exhibits a supercontinuum structure, and the quantum orbital is controllable. When the wavelength is 1600 nm and 2000 nm, and n = 1.2, we gain a deeper understanding of the physical process of harmonics. We have provided the time-frequency distribution and the probability density of an electron wave packet picture. Next, we analyzed the impact of the carrier-envelope phase on harmonics, and we combined Lissajous figures to continue our analysis. The research results find that when the carrier-envelope phase is 0, 0.5π, π, and 1.5π, the harmonic intensity becomes higher, and all exhibit a supercontinuum structure. We chose certain orders of harmonics, and isolated attosecond pulses can be synthesized.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
