Abstract
Preparation of nonclassical light with special quantum properties is essential for quantum technologies. High-harmonic generation (HHG) is a process that not only enables the creation of attosecond pulses but also has the potential to generate light with intricate quantum properties. In a recent experiment [PRX Quantum 5, 040319 (2024)], nonclassical interharmonic correlations have been measured from an HHG source between low-order harmonics. In this work, we theoretically investigate entanglement between different harmonics within an effective, phenomenological quantum optical model. This model implements a significant degree of simplification regarding the processes within the target material, treating the material through susceptibilities, as it is usual in quantum optics. Such an approach yields a general description of HHG in the few-harmonic generation regime, permitting the implications that can be derived within it to hold broadly within the domain of validity. We find that entanglement is produced as a result of the often neglected backaction. We can qualitatively reproduce experimentally measured nonclassicalities, which suggests that intermodal entanglement can, to an extent, be considered a universal phenomenon associated with HHG, rather than a result of using specific material targets.
