Abstract
We discuss the role of different factors (molecular sizes and configuration, orientation of the molecular axis with respect to the electric field of a laser pulse, the type of the molecular orbital, etc.), which characterize molecules and their state, in the formation of the nonlinear response of a molecule ionized by a high-power femtosecond laser pulse. In numerical experiments within the framework of a two-dimensional model for the H + molecular ion, we study possibilities for controlling the process of nonlinear frequency conversion of femtosecond optical radiation into X-ray radiation of attosecond duration by means of preliminary vibrational or electronic excitation of molecules. We demonstrate the possibilities of using the attosecond pulse generation as a diagnostic tool for probing vibration-rotational dynamics of molecules.
