▎ 摘  要

Graphene exhibits extremely strong optical nonlinearity in a perpendicular magnetic field, the optical conductivities show complicated field dependence at a moderate light intensity, and the perturbation theory fails. The full optical currents induced by a periodic field are nonperturbatively investigated in an equation-of-motion framework based on the Floquet theorem, with the scattering described phenomenologically. The nonlinear responses are understood in terms of the dressed electronic states, or Floquet states, which could be characterized by a weak probe light field. The method is illustrated for a magnetic field at 5 T and a driving field with photon energy 0.05 eV. Our results show that the perturbation theory works for weak fields < 3 kV/cm, confirming the unusual strong light-matter interaction for Landau levels of graphene. Our approach can be easily extended to other systems.
