Electron-correlation-induced nonclassicality of light from high-order harmonic generation
Christian Saugbjerg Lange, Thomas Hansen, Lars Bojer Madsen
Abstract
In this paper, the authors use a fully quantum-mechanical description to study the effect of electron-electron correlations on the quantum state of light emitted via high-harmonic generation. The work represents a crucial step toward a fully quantized description of the interaction between intense laser fields and complex systems, with potential applications in quantum light engineering.
