The situation is, however, different in solid-state systems as it has been demonstrated that due to collisions with neighboring atomic cores of the crystal lattice strong HHG can be generated even by elliptically- and circularly-polarized laser fields. Here we apply PG to solid-state systems and find that the conventional PG technique is inefficient for the generation of isolated ultrashort harmonic pulse bursts. In contrast, we demonstrate that a polarization-skewed laser pulse is able to confine the harmonic emission to a time window of less than one-tenth of the laser cycle. This method provides a novel way to control HHG and to generate isolated attosecond pulses in solids.</jats:p>"}],"publication_status":"published","doi":"10.1364/oe.491418","date_created":"2023-06-21T09:55:18Z","publication_identifier":{"issn":["1094-4087"]},"author":[{"last_name":"Song","full_name":"Song, Xiaohong","first_name":"Xiaohong"},{"full_name":"Yang, Shidong","last_name":"Yang","first_name":"Shidong"},{"last_name":"Wang","full_name":"Wang, Guifang","first_name":"Guifang"},{"last_name":"Lin","full_name":"Lin, Jianpeng","first_name":"Jianpeng"},{"first_name":"Liang","full_name":"Wang, Liang","last_name":"Wang"},{"full_name":"Meier, Torsten","last_name":"Meier","id":"344","first_name":"Torsten","orcid":"0000-0001-8864-2072"},{"last_name":"Yang","full_name":"Yang, Weifeng","first_name":"Weifeng"}],"volume":31,"project":[{"_id":"53","grant_number":"231447078","name":"TRR 142: TRR 142 - Maßgeschneiderte nichtlineare Photonik: Von grundlegenden Konzepten zu funktionellen Strukturen"},{"name":"TRR 142 - A: TRR 142 - Project Area A","_id":"54"},{"_id":"165","name":"TRR 142 - A10: TRR 142 - Nichtlinearitäten von atomar dünnen Übergangsmetall-Dichalkogeniden in starken Feldern (A10*)","grant_number":"231447078"}],"department":[{"_id":"15"},{"_id":"170"},{"_id":"293"},{"_id":"35"},{"_id":"230"},{"_id":"429"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication":"Optics Express","status":"public","_id":"45704","user_id":"16199","year":"2023","type":"journal_article","keyword":["Atomic and Molecular Physics","and Optics"],"publisher":"Optica Publishing Group","citation":{"apa":"Song, X., Yang, S., Wang, G., Lin, J., Wang, L., Meier, T., &#38; Yang, W.
