Abstract

Intraband high-order harmonics in solids reflect the nonlinear motion of carriers in the energy bands and have important applications. In general, multiple energy bands contribute to the intraband harmonics. We reveal the interference mechanism of intraband harmonics between electrons and holes by using the k-resolved semiclassical intraband model. The model gives a quantitative relationship between the intraband radiation yield, the energy band dispersion, and the laser parameters. Based on a preexcitation scheme, we present a method to reconstruct energy bands by using the intraband harmonics. We simulate the intraband harmonics of photo-carriers polarized by a bias field. The variation of harmonic yields as a function of a delay time results from the k-resolved energy band dispersion and reflects the Bloch oscillation of photo-carriers driven by the bias field.
