High-order harmonic generation in a partially ionized medium

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The harmonic spectra generated by atoms in the presence of an ionized neighborhood are investigated. Numerical calculations in a one-dimensional model show an increase of the maximum harmonic energy radiated that leads to photon frequencies well beyond the single-atom cutoff Ip + 3.17Up. We identify these harmonics with those generated when the atom’s detached electron is captured by a neighboring ion. By means of classical considerations, we give simple laws for the new harmonic cutoff in the tunneling and the multiphoton ionization regimes.
