Non-perturbative interactions (i.e., interactions too strong to be described by so-called perturbation theory) between light and matter have been the topic of numerous research studies. Yet the role that quantum properties of light play in these interactions and the phenomena arising from them have so far remained widely unexplored.

"We showed that on the contrary to expectations, many important features like the intensity and spectrum, all change as a result of using a driving light source with different quantum photon statistics," Prof. Kaminer and Gorlach said."The paper we wrote also predicts experimentally feasible scenarios that cannot be explained in any other means except by considering the photon statistics.
"The way our theory works is by splitting the driving light into one of two representations called the generalized Glauber distribution or the Husimi distribution, and then using the conventional simulations of the HHG field, the time-dependent Schrodinger equation , to simulate separately the parts of the distribution, before combining the simulations together to derive the overall result," Prof. Kaminer and Gorlach said.
The new theory derived by Prof. Kaminer, Gorlach and their colleagues could soon inform studies in different areas of physics. In fact, their paper envisions taking the idea beyond HHG, to a wide range of non-perturbative processes, which can all be driven by non-classical light sources.
