Orbital interference effects in low-order harmonic generation in benzene — •Samuel Schöpa, Falk-Erik Wiechmann, Franziska Fennel, and Dieter Bauer — Universität Rostock, Rostock, Germany

We explore the impact of the driving laser’s ellipticity and polarization on the low-order harmonic spectrum of benzene and find a strong interference in the 5th harmonic between emission originating from transitions between π orbitals and emission from σ orbitals. The contribution of the π orbitals entirely vanishes due to interference for driving with a laser polarized along a σv mirror axis. However, the π orbital’s contribution takes over for elliptic polarization while being fundamentally different from the σ orbital emission, i.e., having the opposite helicity and a perpendicular major polarization axis. The resulting interference yields a complex dependence of the low-order harmonic spectrum of benzene on the ellipticity and the polarization of the driving field.
