Shining New Light on Quantum Control
![The emergence of nonclassical light in high-order harmonic generation is demonstrated to arise not from the dipole moment itself, but from its nonlinear dependence on the driving field-specifically, a transition from nearly coherent states with constant dipole moments, to squeezed states with linear dependence, and ultimately to states exhibiting negative values in the Wigner function indicative of nonclassicality when the dipole moment contains terms quadratic in the field Ω at the 13th harmonic-given initial conditions of a product state between light and a hydrogen atom in superposition, and laser parameters of [latex]\lambda = 2227[/latex] nm, [latex]T_p = 6[/latex] cycles, and [latex]I = 1 \cdot 10^{13} \text{W/cm}^2[/latex], with a quantization parameter of [latex]\beta = 0.41 \text{au}[/latex].](https://arxiv.org/html/2512.23156v1/x1.png)
A new theoretical framework details how intense lasers can sculpt quantum systems to produce bright, tunable sources of nonclassical light.
