Measurement of the polarization of high-order harmonics from aligned N(2) molecules by spatial interferometry.

چکیده
The polarization of high-harmonics from aligned N(2) molecules was measured by observing the visibility of spatial interference between two high-harmonics generated separately. The minimum visibility was observed at an angle of 60 degrees between the polarization of the harmonic generation laser field and the molecular orientation. In this case, the angular shift of harmonic polarization is 15 degrees from the molecular orientation. Our measurement of the visibility variation matches the theoretical prediction based on the harmonic field calculation for aligned N(2) molecules.

Polarization and ellipticity of high-order harmonics from aligned molecules generated by linearly polarized intense laser pulses
We present theoretical calculations for polarization and ellipticity of high-order harmonics from aligned N2, CO2, and O2 molecules generated by linearly polarized lasers. Within the rescattering model, the two polarization amplitudes of the harmonics are determined by the photo-recombination amplitudes for photons emitted with polarization parallel or perpendicular to the direction of the same...

Nowadays, satellite radar interferometry method plays an important role in calculating natural and artificial displacements, including displacements caused by floods, earthquakes, landslides, drilling of unauthorized wells, drilling of urban tunnels, etc. Metro tunneling is very important due to the importance of preventing irreparable financial and human losses. In Tehran, especially due to th...
متن کاملWave-front phase measurements of high-order harmonic beams by use of point-diffraction interferometry.
We report the wave-front phase measurement of high-order harmonics employing point-diffraction interferometry. The high-order harmonics generated in a gas-filled hollow tube showed excellent spatial coherence over nearly the whole cross section of the harmonic beams. Using this coherent harmonic source in the extreme-ultraviolet-soft-x-ray region, we have demonstrated the operation of a point-d...

متن کاملOrigin and implication of ellipticity in high-order harmonic generation from aligned molecules
We address theoretically and numerically the possibility of observing ellipticity in high-order harmonic generation (HHG) from aligned molecules driven by linearly polarized fields—a subject of controversy in the recent literature with significant implications. To that end we develop a numerical method for solution of the electronic dynamics and extend a recently developed theory of HHG from al...
