| contents | A quantum optical model for the high-order harmonic generation is presented, in which both the exciting field and the high harmonic modes are quantized, while the target material appears via parameters only. As a consequence, the model is independent from the excited material system to a large extent, and allows us to focus on the properties of the electromagnetic fields. Technically, the Hamiltonian known for parametric down-conversion is adopted, where photons in the $n$th harmonic mode are created in exchange of annihilating $n$ photons from the fundamental mode. In our treatment, initially the fundamental mode is in a coherent state corresponding to large photon numbers, while the high harmonic modes are in vacuum state. Due to the interaction, the latter modes get populated while the fundamental one loses photons. Analytical approximations are presented for the time evolution that are verified by numerically exact calculations. For multimode, finite bandwith excitation, the time dependence of the high-order harmonic radiation is also given. |
