High-order harmonic spectra and attosecond source generation from Ar atom driven by the inhomogeneous laser field in frequency and space have been theoretically investigated. The results showed that (i) for the case of the frequency modulation of the laser, the harmonic cutoff can be remarkably extended with the introduction of the chirp of the laser field, (ii) for the case of the space modulation of the laser, the harmonic cutoff can be further extended by using the positive spatial inhomogeneous field, (iii) by properly adding a terahertz controlling field, the intensity of the harmonic yield can be enhanced by 2 orders of magnitude, showing a 775[Formula: see text]eV supercontinuum. As a result, five isolated attosecond pulses (IAPs) from 60 as to 22 as can be obtained.

By numerically solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for helium atoms in a single mid-infrared laser field, we explore the frequency-chirping effect of laser field on high-order harmonic and isolated attosecond pulse generation. One or two ultrabroad supercontinuum harmonic plateaus can be controlled through modulating the laser field frequency by a small time-dependent signal. Under the best chirping condition, an ultrashort 2.2 as pulse can be obtained by Fourier transformation with the bandwidth of 782 eV. Furthermore, we explain the harmonic generation physical mechanisms by classical ionizing and returning energy maps and time–frequency analyzes.
