Abstract We investigate the polarization properties of harmonics from the cyclic H32+ molecular ions in tailored bichromatic counter-rotating circularly polarized (BCCP) fields by solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation. The allowed harmonics and their helicities are associated with the symmetry compatibility of the field-target systems, and large intensity difference between adjacent harmonics with opposite helicities appears in a wide spectral range when the BCCP field is at certain rotation angles. We try to explain the intensity difference by using a recombination model based on the quantum-orbit theory and by analyzing the ionization pathways. Moreover, to synthesize attosecond pulse trains with tunable polarization, the intensity difference is manipulated by introducing a seed XUV field, and by changing the relative amplitude ratio as well as the helicity of BCCP fields.

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.
