Programmable high-harmonic emission in solids through photon pathways

Pieter J. van Essen, Aday Cárdenas, Rui E. F. Silva +2

Ultrafast all-optical control of light emission is a central goal of extreme nonlinear optics, with implications for compact short-wavelength sources, petahertz optoelectronics, an…

Contrasting ultrafast light-driven electron-hole interaction dynamics in monolayer MoS and metallic NbSe

Aday Cárdenas, Rui E. F. Silva, Álvaro Jiménez-Galán

We study strong-field driven ultrafast dynamics and high-harmonic generation (HHG) in monolayer 2H-NbSe and compare them with those of monolayer 2H-MoS by solving the multi…

Effects of Zero-Point Motion in the High Harmonic Generation Spectrum of Solids

Aday Cárdenas, David N. Purschke, Graham G. Brown +3

The interpretation of high-harmonic generation (HHG) in solids typically relies on phenomenological dephasing times far shorter than what is expected from microscopic scattering pr…

High Harmonic Generation from a Noble Metal

Shima Gholam-Mirzaei, Aleksey Korobenko, Nida Haram +11

High-harmonic generation (HHG) in solids has typically been explored in transparent dielectrics and semiconductors. Metals have long been dismissed due to their strong reflectivity…

Spatial polarization gating of high-harmonic generation in solids

Pieter J. van Essen, Brian de Keijzer, Tanya van Horen +4

High-harmonic generation from solids can be utilized as probe of ultrafast dynamics, but thus far only over extended sample areas, since its spatial resolution is diffraction-limit…

Ultrafast dephasing in solid state high harmonic generation: macroscopic origin revealed by real-space dynamics

Graham G. Brown, Álvaro Jiménez-Galán, Rui E. F. Silva +1

Using a fully real-space perspective on high harmonic generation (HHG) in solids, we examine the relationship between microscopic response, macroscopic propagation of this response…

Unambiguous discrimination of high harmonic generation mechanisms in solids

Graham G. Brown, Rui E. F. Silva, Álvaro Jiménez-Galán +2

Using real-space view of high harmonic generation (HHG) in solids, we develop a physically transparent and gauge-invariant approach for distinguishing intraband and interband HHG m…

Orbital perspective on high-harmonic generation from solids

Á. Jiménez-Galán, C. Bossaer, G. Ernotte +7

High-harmonic generation in solids allows probing and controlling electron dynamics in crystals on few femtosecond timescales, paving the way to lightwave electronics. In the spati…
