Abstract

We present the classical ionization trajectory of hydrogen atoms in a strong laser field by numerically solving Newton’s equation using the Monte-Carlo method. The electron ionization trajectories are scrutinized for different optical periods (TD = 1T, 3T, and 5T), and it is found that the pulse duration of the laser field has significantly influenced the ionization trajectory of the ionized electron. For the short optical period, the electron gains enough energy and be ionized, while for a long optical period, when the pulse duration has not attained an optical period, the absorbed energy is not enough to ionize the atom. Moreover, the trajectory of the ionized electrons alters correspondingly with the change in the carrier-envelope phase of the laser field..
