Polarization Shaping of High Harmonics generated by structured laser pulses — •Jonas Wätzel and Jamal Berakdar — Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg, Institut für Physik, Halle (Saale)

High-order harmonic generation (HHG) from atoms driven by IR vector beams and beams carrying orbital momentum has been demonstrated experimentally [1]. Here we show how a spatiotemporal shaping of the pulse allows to imprint locally circular polarization onto the emitted radiation. As shown analytically and numerically, the time-dependent Stokes parameters, representing the ratio between linear and circular polarization can be controlled by simply tuning the parameters of the IR field. The proposed scheme offers a method for a full polarization control of the emitted HHG by only one input light field.
