Intense laser field effects on the third-harmonic generation in a quantum pseudodot system

In this research, we present the effects of high-frequency intense laser field on the third-harmonic generation associated with intersubband transitions in a two-dimensional quantum pseudodot system subjected to an uniform external magnetic field. Non-resonant monochromatic laser radiation with circular polarization is considered within the framework of high-frequency Floquet approach. On the basis of the compact-density matrix approach and an iterative method, the third-harmonic generation coefficient is calculated. The results presented for a GaAs quantum dot show that: (i) the position and magnitude of the resonant peak of third-harmonic generation depend strongly on magnetic field, the chemical potential and zero-point of pseudoharmonic potential; (ii) the strength of intense laser field modifies the confinement potential which results in considerable changes in the nonlinear optical response of the system.
