Generazione di armoniche ed evoluzione temporale dello spettro emesso

Vincenzo Miceli

Published Jan 1, 1994• 0 citations
OpenAlex

Abstract

It is presented a generalization of the Fourier transform needed to obtain the temporal evolution of a spectrum. This technique is applied to High Order Harmonic Ceneration from a two level atom to detect when the harmonics are generated and not only what they are.

Wavelet temporal profile of high-order harmonics emitted by a two-level atom in the presence of a laser pulse

Salvatore De Luca, Emilio Fiordilino

The acceleration of the electron in a two-level atom driven by a short laser pulse of intermediate strength is calculated and therefore analysed through two wavelet transforms in order to obtain the temporal evolution of the spectrum of the emitted radiation. We show (i) the full spectrum at different instants and (ii) the time profile of some representative harmonics. The growth of the harmonics as well as the appearance and erratic behaviour of the hyper-Raman can be followed with the laser intensity.

Quantum-optical model for the dynamics of high-order-harmonic generation

Ákos Gombkötő, Attila Czirják, Sándor Varró +1 more

We investigate a two-level atom in the field of a strong laser pulse. The resulting time-dependent polarization is the source of a radiation the frequency components of which are essentially harmonics of the driving field's carrier frequency. The time evolution of this secondary radiation is analyzed in terms of the expectation values of the photon-number operators for a large number of electromagnetic modes that are initially in the vacuum state. Our method is based on a multimode version of the Jaynes-Cummings-Paul model and can be generalized to different radiating systems as well. We show that, after the exciting pulse, the final distribution of the photon numbers is close to the conventional (Fourier-transform-based) power spectrum of the secondary radiation. The details of the high-order-harmonic spectra (HHG spectra) are also analyzed; for many-cycle excitations a clear physical interpretation is given in terms of the Floquet quasienergies. A first step towards the determination of the photon statistics of the high-order-harmonic modes reveals states with slightly super-Poissonian distribution.

High-order harmonic emission from a three-level atom in a laser field

Pasquale Caldara, Emilio Fiordilino

The spectrum emitted by a three-level atom in the presence of a weak laser field is given together with the population dynamics and the phase of the Fourier transform of the acceleration. Calculations show that the spectrum can be very different from that emitted by a two-level atom. When the trapping conditions are obtained, the coupling to the third level can result in a large change in the spectrum.
