Abstract
We present an investigation of high harmonic generation (HHG) from relativistic plasmas driven by two-color co-rotating circularly polarized (CP) laser fields at various frequency ratios ω2/ω1. The theoretical analysis and the particle-in-cell simulation results reveal that when ω2/ω1≥4, CP harmonics with opposite helicities can appear simultaneously due to the relativistic mirror effect and the related conservation laws. Meanwhile, the harmonic spectra features (including the HHG efficiency, the allowed harmonic orders, and their polarization states) can be tuned through adjusting the frequency and intensity ratio of the two driving field components. This finding might be helpful for a consummate understanding of the bi-circular HHG technique.
