Abstract
Abstract In this paper, the half-cycle harmonic generation process has been controlled by using the asymmetric inhomogeneous chirped pulse combined with the ultraviolet (UV) pulse. It is found that by properly optimizing the chirps and chirp delays of the fundamental two-color pulse, the optimal negative and positive half-cycle laser profiles for the harmonic cutoff extension can be obtained. Further, with the introduction of the negative and positive inhomogeneous effect, respectively, the harmonic cutoff from the negative and positive half-cycle laser profiles can be further improved. Next, with the assistance of the UV pulse, the harmonic intensity can be enhanced due to the UV resonance ionization. Moreover, the single and double UV photon resonance ionizations are much better for generating the higher harmonic intensity. As a result, the stronger and broader harmonic plateaus with the larger harmonic cutoff can be obtained, which can support the generation of the high-intensity ultrashort attosecond pulses with the pulse durations of sub-45 as.
