Abstract
We explore the possibility of bicircular high-order harmonic spectroscopy to probe the laser-induced dynamics of molecules in a non-Born-Oppenheimer treatment. The numerical solutions of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for aligned H2 and its isotopologs in ω-2ω bicircular fields show that the intensity ratio between D2 and H2 for harmonic orders 3q is lower than that for orders 3q±1(q∈N). Based on the strong-field approximation, we demonstrate that the interplay of vibrational wave-packet motion and dynamical-symmetry breaking leads to the different ratio. In general, the vibrational motion causes the ratio between isotopologs to increase with q for both harmonic orders 3q and 3q±1. On the other hand, the emission of orders 3q is possible only because of the alignment-induced breaking of the dynamical symmetry. The faster nuclear motion in H2 enhances the symmetry breaking, resulting in the lower D2/H2 ratio for the orders 3q. Therefore, the harmonic orders 3q give access to the attosecond probing of dynamical symmetries in molecules.
