We report ultra-strong high-order nonlinear multiphoton processes in monolayer MoS$_2$ (1L-MoS$_2$): the third harmonic is thirty times stronger than the second harmonic, and the fourth harmonic is comparable to the second harmonic. We find that second and third harmonic processes are strongly dependent on elliptical polarization, which can be used to selectively tune harmonic generation with different orders. We explain this by calculating the nonlinear response functions of 1L-MoS$_2$ with a continuum-model Hamiltonian and quantum-mechanical diagrammatic perturbation theory, highlighting the crucial role of trigonal warping. A similar effect is expected for all other transition-metal dichalcogenides. Our results pave the way for efficient and tunable harmonic generation based on layered materials for various applications, including microscopy and imaging |
