Abstract

As a potential high-efficiency XUV light source, high-order harmonic generation (HHG) in solids contains the dynamic information of electrons. The interactions among many particles in solids are ubiquitous and, to some extent, modulate the motion of electrons. However, the role of electron-electron interaction (EEI) effect in solid HHG has not been well understood. In this paper, we study the laser-intensity-dependent EEI effect under the given laser pulse durations. By comparing the finite chain model with the infinite extension model, we find that, if the electric field is strong enough, the induced electric field caused by EEI is nontrivial for the finite chain model. We also find that EEI only can enhance HHG spectra in a limited frequency range under some specific intensities of the laser field in both models, and the EEI effect is related to the configuration of the system. This study can provide a reference for whether EEI can be ignored when simulating the interaction between one-dimensional solids and lasers.
