Abstract: This document reports recent theoretical and experimental investigations of strong field ionization and high harmonic generation from mid-infrared lasers at 2 and 4 microns. Numerical solution of the time-dependent Schrodinger equation as well as Strong Field approximation calculations are reported. Photoelectron and high harmonic spectra are discussed. Preliminary experimental results are compared to the theoretical predictions.
