Abstract Strong field laser physics has primarily been concerned with controlling beams in time while keeping their spatial profiles invariant. In the case of high harmonic generation, the harmonic beam is the result of the coherent superposition of atomic dipole emissions. Therefore, fundamental beams can be tailored in space, and their spatial characteristics will be imparted onto the harmonics.
Abstract Polarization states of light, represented by different points on a Poincaré sphere, can be readily analyzed for a Gaussian beam by a combination of wave plates and polarizers. However, this method cannot be extended to higher-order Poincaré spheres and complex polarization patterns produced by coherent superpositions of vector vortex (VV) beams.
