Abstract

The Electric Stark effect of a Kramers-Henneberger (KH) state of hydrogen atoms in both linearly and circularly polarized laser fields is studied. For the ground KH state of H atoms with a small quiver amplitude, the quadratic Stark effect is observed. For a large quiver amplitude, the Stark effect is quadratic only in a weak electric field and quickly changes to linear as the electric field increases. The atomic structure of the KH state is very sensitive to the electric field and can be easily polarized. The huge polarizability and induced dipole moment are comparable to those of Rydberg atoms.
