Abstract
We theoretically investigate nonadiabatic effects in tunneling ionization of a hydrogen atom induced by a few-cycle elliptically polarized laser pulse. We find a deflection angle between the maximum of the photoelectron momentum distribution and the direction of the negative vector potential corresponding to the electric-field peak. This deflection angle mainly originates from the fact that the instant of the maximal ionization rate does not exactly correspond to the instant of the electric-field peak in the few-cycle elliptically polarized laser pulse, revealing an ionization time shift between those two instants. The ionization time shift is a result of the nonadiabatic effect induced by the envelope of the few-cycle elliptically polarized laser pulse, which disappears in a long-pulsed laser. Our study is useful for understanding attoclock experiments using few-cycle elliptically polarized laser pulses.
