High-order harmonic generation by chirped and self-guided femtosecond laser pulses. II. Time-frequency analysis

Abstract: We present a time-dependent analysis of high-order harmonics generated by a self-guided femtosecond laser pulse propagating through a long gas jet. A three-dimensional model is used to calculate the harmonic fields generated by laser pulses, which only differ by the sign of their initial chirp. The time-frequency distributions of the single-atom dipole and harmonic field reveal the dynamics of harmonic generation in the cutoff. A time-dependent phase-matching calculation was performed, taking into account the … Show more

“…We calibrated the artificially induced chirp by analyzing the phase and pulse duration of the laser pulses propagating through the compressor stage at different distances between gratings by using the SPIDER [18] and measuring the pulse duration of various positively and negatively chirped pulses. At these conditions, no new frequencies are introduced, but the "ionization gating" changes the effective drive laser wavelength in the medium through chirping [19][20][21].…”

“…The macroscopic harmonic signal is the result of the coherent superposition of the single dipole emissions in each spatial point. Since the model has been described in several papers [25][26][27], we only mention here some specific aspects connected to the driving pulse propagation in the waveguide.…”

“…[6][7][8] However, all these studies are addressed to the conditions when laser broadening is induced by relatively "mild" influence of the SPM on the harmonic properties. This term refers to the conditions, when both spectral and spatial parameters of laser radiation moderately change during propagation through the nonlinear medium.…”
