Abstract

High-order harmonics were coherently controlled using chirped femtosecond laser pulses for the production of sharp and strong harmonics. As the laser intensity was increased above the saturation intensity for optical-field ionization, the laser chirp needed to suppress harmonic chirp in the plateau region changed from positive to negative. We showed that the modification of a laser chirp condition in a rapidly ionizing medium should be included for the proper coherent control of high-order harmonics, necessitating the integral treatment of the interaction between atoms and a driving laser pulse.
