Tabletop coherent extreme ultraviolet and soft X-ray sources based on high harmonic generation
High harmonic generation (HHG) is a fascinating strong-field physics phenomenon that occurs when a laser pulse with a moderate intensity interacts with atoms and partially ionizes the atoms. A series of harmonics are generated at similar efficiencies and extend to a few tenth, even thousandth, …

High harmonic generation and attosecond dynamics in small organic molecules and biomolecules
… of ionization and high harmonic generation (HHG) in a number of small molecules, using the EDAMAME code, which combines a TDDFT description of electronic dynamics with a classical treatment of ionic dynamics. The work is divided into two main areas.<br/><br/> In the first area, we study the …

Extreme ultraviolet polarization optics for polarimetry of structured high harmonics
High Harmonic Generation (HHG) is a leading way to generate table-top coherent extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and attosecond pulses. Polarization characterization in this spectral range is important to understand the phenomena of HHG and quantify the light used for experiments. Furthermore, polarization …

Modelling of capillary high harmonic generation
High harmonic generation (HHG) is now an accepted method for laboratory based generation of XUV and soft x-ray light. HHG produces pulses that are highly coherent, with a pulse length in the femtosecond or attosecond timescales. To predict the XUV output from an HHG experiment, both the emission …

Limits of High Harmonic Generation conversion efficiency
High Harmonic Generation (HHG) is a fascinating phenomenon from both fundamental and technological point of view. It enables the generation of attosecond pulses and can have applications in EUV lithography and bio-microscopy. HHG can be described by the Three Step Model (TSM), due to the three …

Limits of long wavelength High Harmonic Generation
… driver pulses for High Harmonic Generation (HHG). The advantage of longer wavelengths is that the cut-off of the harmonic spectrum can be increased without the need for large electric fields. Large electric field is undesirable because it leads to large plasma generation which reduces …

High harmonic generation by short laser pulses: time-frequency behavior and applications to attophysics
High harmonic generation (HHG) is a process in which noble gas atoms excited by an intense laser field at frequency ω<sub>1</sub> emit radiation of higher frequencies that are odd integer multiples of ω<sub>1</sub>. Driven by an infrared laser, high harmonic radiation can span from the optical into …
