In this study, high harmonic generation from a multi-atomic nitrous oxide molecule was investigated. A comprehensive three-dimensional calculation of the molecular dynamics and electron trajectories through an accurate time-dependent density functional theory was conducted to efficiently explore a broad harmonic plateau. The effects of multi-electron and inner orbitals on the harmonic spectrum and generated coherent attosecond pulses were analyzed. The role of the valence electrons in controlling the process and extending the harmonic plateau was investigated. The main issue of producing a super-continuum harmonic spectrum via a frequency shift was considered. The time-frequency... 

In this work we present an ellipsoid cavity regime for the production of a bunch of quasi-monoenergetic electrons. The electron output beam is more effective than the periodic plasma wave method or the plasma-channel-guided method. A hyperbola, parabola or ellipsoid path is described for the electron trajectory motion in this model. A dense bunch of relativistic electrons with a quasi-monoenergetic spectrum is self-generated here. The obtained results show a smaller width for the electron energy spectrum in comparison with the previous results. We found that there are optimum conditions to form the ellipsoid cavity. Laser beam properties (such as the spot size, power and pulse duration) and... 

Using the ellipsoidal cavity model, the quasi-monoenergetic electron output beam in laser-plasma interaction is described. By the cavity regime the quality of electron beam is improved in comparison with those generated from other methods such as periodic plasma wave field, spheroidal cavity regime and plasma channel guided acceleration. Trajectory of electron motion is described as hyperbolic, parabolic or elliptic paths. We find that the self-generated electron bunch has a smaller energy width and more effective gain in energy spectrum. Initial condition for the ellipsoidal cavity is determined by laser-plasma parameters. The electron trajectory is influenced by its position, energy and...
