Abstract High-order harmonic generation (HHG) of Ar atom in an elliptically polarized intense laser field is experimentally investigated in this work. Interestingly, the anomalous ellipticity dependence on the laser ellipticity ($\varepsilon $) in the lower-order harmonics is observed, specifically in the 13rd-order, which displays a maximal harmonic intensity at $\varepsilon \approx 0.1$, rather than at $\varepsilon = 0$ as expected. This contradicts the general trend of harmonic yield, which typically decreases with the increase of laser ellipticity. In this study, we attribute this phenomenon to the disruption of the symmetry of the wave function by the Coulomb effect, leading to the generation of a harmonic with high ellipticity. This finding provides valuable insights into the behavior of elliptically polarized harmonics and opens up a potential way for exploring new applications in ultrafast spectroscopy and light-matter interactions.

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.
