Quantum beats in the polarization response of a dielectric to intense few-cycle laser pulses

We have investigated the polarization response of a dielectric to intense few-cycle laser pulses with a focus on interband tunnelling. Once charge carriers are created in an initially empty conduction band, they make a significant contribution to the polarization response. In particular, the coheren...
