We present an analytic, and fully quantum theory of high harmonic generation by low frequency laser fields for a two-state hydrogenlike atom model. The model is valid for an arbitrary atomic potential role of dipole matrix elements and can be generalized to describe laser fields of arbitrary polarization and includes the depletion of states. In the case of an initial coherent superposition of two states, the theory clearly explains why high conversion efficiency can be obtained. Our results are based on quantum interference effects in recombination via different states. We demonstrate that four quantum paths of electron contribute in the harmonic spectrum. The harmonic conversion efficiency is directly proportional to the initial-state amplitudes and depletion of the states (especially excited state), the remained population of the bound states at the time of recombination and the distinct dipole strengths. The main contribution to high conversion efficiency is the transition from the excited to the ground state.
