We formulate the concept of dominant interaction Hamiltonians to obtain an integrable approximation to the dynamics of an electron exposed to a strong laser field and an atomic potential leading to high harmonic generation. The concept relies on local information in phase space to switch between the interactions. This information is provided by classical integrable trajectories from which we construct a semiclassical wave function. The high harmonic spectrum obtained is in excellent agreement with the accurate quantum spectrum. The separation in the atomic potential and laser coupling interactions should facilitate the calculation of high harmonic spectra in complex systems.

We observe the generation of high harmonics in the plane perpendicular to the driving laser polarization and show that these are driven by the spin-orbit interaction. Using R-Matrix with time-dependence theory, we demonstrate that for certain initial states either circularly- or linearly- polarized harmonics arise via well-known selection rules between atomic states controlled by the spin-orbit interaction. Finally, we elucidate the connection between the observed harmonics and the phase of the intial state.
We study high-order harmonic generation (HHG) resulting from the illumination of plasmonic nanostructures with a short laser pulse. We show that both the inhomogeneities of the local electric field and the confinement of the electron motion play an i mportant role in the HHG process and lead to a significant increase of the harmonic cutoff. In order to understand and characterize this feature, we combine the numerical solution of the time dependent Schroedinger equation (TDSE) with the electric fields obtained from 3D finite element simulations. We employ time-frequency analysis to extract more detailed information from the TDSE results and to explain the extended harmonic spectra. Our findings have the potential to boost up the utilization of HHG as coherent extreme ultraviolet (XUV) sources.
The development of alternative platforms for computing has been a longstanding goal for physics, and represents a particularly pressing concern as conventional transistors approach the limit of miniaturization. A potential alternatice paradigm is tha t of reservoir computing, which leverages unknown, but highly non-linear transformations of input-data to perform computations. This has the advantage that many physical systems exhibit precisely the type of non-linear input-output relationships necessary for them to function as reservoirs. Consequently, the quantum effects which obstruct the further development of silicon electronics become an advantage for a reservoir computer. Here we demonstrate that even the most basic constituents of matter - atoms - can act as a reservoir for optical computers, thanks to the phenomenon of High Harmonic Generation (HHG). A prototype single-atom computer for classification problems is proposed, where parameters of the classification model are mapped to optical elements. We numerically demonstrate that this `all-optical computer can successfully classify data with an accuracy that is strongly dependent on dynamical non-linearities. This may pave the way for the development of petahertz information processing platforms.

We investigate the orientation dependence of high-order harmonic generation (HHG) from H$_2^+$ with different internuclear distances irradiated by intense laser fields both numerically and analytically. The calculated molecular HHG spectra are found to be sensitive to molecular axis orientation relative to incident laser field polarization and internuclear separation. In particular, the spectra calculated for different orientation angles demonstrate a kind of intersection, which is identified as arising due to intramolecular two-center interference in the HHG. The striking intersection phenomenon can be used to probe the molecular instantaneous structure.
High-order harmonic generation by a bicircular field, which consists of two coplanar counter-rotating circularly polarized fields of frequency $romega$ and $somega$ ($r$ and $s$ are integers), is investigated for a polyatomic molecule. This field pos sesses dynamical symmetry, which can be adjusted to the symmetry of the molecular Hamiltonian and used to investigate the molecular symmetry. For polyatomic molecules having the $C_{r+s}$ symmetry only the harmonics $n=q(r+s)pm r$, $q=1,2,ldots$, are emitted having the ellipticity $varepsilon_n=pm 1$. We illustrate this using the example of the planar molecules BH$_3$ and BF$_3$, which obey the $C_3$ symmetry. We show that for the BF$_3$ molecule, similarly to atoms with a $p$ ground state, there is a strong asymmetry in the emission of high harmonics with opposite helicities. This asymmetry depends on the molecular orientation.
