Effect of interlayer coupling and symmetry on high-order harmonic generation from monolayer and bilayer hexagonal boron nitride (2112.10117v1)

Published 19 Dec 2021 in physics.optics and cond-mat.mtrl-sci

Abstract: High-order harmonic generation (HHG) is a fundamental process which can be simplified as the production of high energetic photons from a material subjected to a strong driving laser field. This highly nonlinear optical process contains rich information concerning the electron structure and dynamics of matter, for instance, gases, solids and liquids. Moreover, the HHG from solids has recently attracted the attention of both attosecond science and condensed matter physicist, since the HHG spectra can carry information of electron-hole dynamics in bands and inter- and intra-band current dynamics. In this paper, we study the effect of interlayer coupling and symmetry in two-dimensional (2D) material by analyzing high-order harmonic generation from monolayer and two differently stacked bilayer hexagonal boron nitrides (hBNs). These simulations reveal that high-order harmonic emission patterns strongly depend on crystal inversion symmetry (IS), rotation symmetry and interlayer coupling.
