摘要
High-order harmonics (HOHs) spectroscopy is attracting the attention of the condensed matter community, mostly because the HOHs spectrum encode the material property. Topological materials are of interest for both basic research and advanced technologies because of their robust properties against dissipation and perturbations. Floquet engineering technique have been demonstrated to be a unique tool to manipulate topological phase. In this paper, we apply HOH spectroscopy to characterize the Floquet state via the circular dichroism (CD). We find that the CD of the co-rotating harmonics is sensitive to Floquet topological states
