Fluctuations in bicircular quantum light have been found to induce symmetry breaking in high harmonic generation, a process where intense laser light is converted into higher-frequency radiation. This phenomenon has significant implications for the understanding of light-matter interactions, as symmetries play a crucial role in determining the selection rules for atomic transitions. The driving field's symmetries typically dictate the allowed frequencies and polarization properties of the resulting harmonics1. However, the introduction of fluctuations in the bicircular quantum light can break these symmetries, leading to the generation of harmonics with unique properties. This discovery has important consequences for the development of quantum technologies, particularly in the context of post-quantum cryptography, where the timeline for migration is narrowing. So what matters to practitioners is that this research underscores the urgency of planning for the transition to quantum-resistant cryptographic systems, as advancements in quantum physics continue to accelerate.
