Phys. Rev. A 69, 021404(R) (2004) [4 pages]Effect of orbital symmetry on high-order harmonic generation from molecules
It was found experimentally with increasing the laser ellipticity that the intensity of the 45th order harmonic from O2 decreases slower than that from N2. The difference is attributed to the fact that the recombination probability is suppressed for O2 but enhanced for N2 in a linearly polarized field. Simulation results obtained by extending the Lewenstein model to molecules agreed qualitatively with the experimental discoveries. © 2004 The American Physical Society URL:
