Abstract
Dimensionality strongly affects elementary excitations in correlated quantum materials, yet its impact on extreme nonlinear optical responses remains largely unexplored. Here, we combine high-harmonic generation (HHG) experiments on quasi-one-dimensional SrCuO2 and quasi-two-dimensional Pr2CuO4 with nonequilibrium simulations of Hubbard models. We find a pronounced dimensional contrast: SrCuO2 exhibits a robust plateau-like high-harmonic spectrum with weak temperature dependence, whereas Pr2CuO4 shows a monotonic decrease in harmonic yield and strong thermal suppression, especially at higher harmonics. The simulations qualitatively reproduce these trends and identify dimensionality-dependent doublon--holon dephasing, governed by spin--charge coupling, as their microscopic origin. These results establish dimensionality and spin--charge coupling as key control parameters for extreme nonlinear optical responses in correlated insulators.
