Abstract
We study the ellipticity dependence of high-order harmonic generation (HOHG ) when a static electric field is present. Through investigating the corres ponding classical trajectories of the electron for the harmonic generation, it is found that there exists two different mechanisms. For the elliptical incidence HOHG, we also find that the application of a static electric fie ld can generate harmonics far beyond the usual cutoff.
