Quantum light in a finite 1-D slab and its effects on high harmonic generation — •Arlans Juan Smokovicz de Lara — Max-Planck-Institut für Physik komplexer Systeme, Dresden, Deutschland

Since its discovery, high harmonic generation (HHG), as a process non-linear in the number of photons, has been realized with intense "classical" light. Recently, progress has been made towards creating non-classical intense light pulses [1], which promises new quantum effects in the interaction with matter. We will present first results of non-classical light, in particular cat states of linearly polarized light interacting with delocalized electrons, realized in a 1-D slab of atoms [2], investigating the combined effects of the non-classical light and the periodic, crystal-like, yet finite target.
