Abstract We theoretically investigated the properties of the high-order harmonic generation from an argon atom by bichromatic counter-rotating circularly polarized (BCCP) laser field. The harmonic emission processes have been illustrated by numerically solving the two-dimensional time-dependent Schrödinger equation of an atom in intense laser fields. It is found that with the decrease of the right-circularly polarized laser wavelength, the harmonic spectra are gradually splitting and the harmonic orders move towards the higher frequency. Meanwhile, the integer and semi-integer harmonic emission will be generated when the frequency ratios of right- and left-circularly polarized lasers are semi-integer. The emission mechanism of the semi-integer-order harmonics has been investigated by using the rules of photon absorption and emission.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
