Damping of the tunneling mechanism in high-order harmonic generation processes induced by femtosecond visible laser pulses
A. Simoncig, A. Caretta, B. Ressel, L. Poletto, and F. Parmigiani
The high-order harmonic generation (HHG) of coherent light pulses in gases is strictly dependent on the ionization dynamics that delocalizes the electron wave function in the laser field continuum. Here we report on the investigation of such dynamics by varying the energy of a 400 nm, 60 fs driving … [Appl. Phys. Lett. 95, 041107 (2009)] published Tue Jul 28, 2009.
