研究目的
Investigating the laser-driven tunneling photocurrent as a source of midinfrared to microwave multidecade supercontinua yoked to high-order harmonics.
研究成果
The laser-induced tunneling photocurrent can serve as a source of remarkably broadband electromagnetic radiation, with a spectrum extending from the vacuum ultraviolet down to the microwave range. The coherent combination of supercontinuum fields emitted by individual photocurrent steps results in well-resolved high-order harmonics and a bright midinfrared to microwave supercontinuum. This finding opens new avenues for integrating ultrafast photonics with microwave technologies.
研究不足
The study is limited by the technical constraints of the laser driver's intensity and the gas pressure range that can be practically achieved. Additionally, the model does not include propagation effects, which could influence the radiation spectrum in real-world applications.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study employs a semiclassical framework to analyze the photoelectron current as a source of low-frequency radiation, using a standard semiclassical equation for the dynamics of the photoelectron current.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:

The methodology includes calculating the electron density buildup via photoionization, analyzing the photoelectron current dynamics, and evaluating the spectrum of the emitted radiation.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The spectrum of the radiation emitted by the photoelectron current is analyzed using Fourier transforms and diffraction integrals to understand its properties and dependencies on experimental parameters.
