Abstract
The high-order harmonic generation (HHG) spectra of open-ended and capped single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) have been studied theoretically. The time evolution of charge density is displayed. It is found that the harmonic yield in nanotubes is sensitive to the field polarization and that the selection rule established for HHG of infinitely extended SWNTs does not hold for all the finite-size tubes except for the armchair tubes. SWCNTs can be ideal candidates to generate coherent x-ray pulsed sources because of the high efficiency and intrinsic characterization of HHG.
