This book offers a review of the use of extended ablation plasmas
as nonlinear media for HHG of high-order harmonic generation (HHG).
The book describes the different experimental approaches, shows the
advantages and limitations regarding HHG efficiency and discusses
the particular processes that take place at longer interaction
lengths, including propagation and quasi-phase matching effects. It
describes the most recent approaches to harmonic generation in the
extreme ultraviolet (XUV) range with the use of extended plasma
plumes, and how these differ from more commonly-used gas-jet
sources. The main focus is on studies using extended plasmas, but
some new findings from HHG experiments in narrow plasma plumes are
also discussed. It also describes how quasi-phase-matching in
modulated plasmas, as demonstrated in recent studies, has revealed
different means of tuning enhanced harmonic groups in the XUV
region. After an introduction to the fundamental theoretical and
experimental aspects of HHG, a review of the most important results
of HHG in narrow plasmas is presented, including recent studies of
small-sized plasma plumes as emitters of high-order harmonics. In
Chapter 2, various findings in the application of extended plasmas
for harmonic generation are analyzed. One of the most important
applications of extended plasmas, the quasi-phase-matching of
generated harmonics, is demonstrated in Chapter 3, including
various approaches to the modification of perforated plasma plumes.
Chapter 4 depicts the nonlinear optical features of extended
plasmas produced on the surfaces of different non-metal materials.
Chapter 5 is dedicated to the analysis of new opportunities for
extended plasma induced HHG. The advantages of the application of
long plasma plumes for HHG, such as resonance enhancement and
double-pulse method, are discussed in Chapter 6. Finally, a summary
section brings together all of these findings and discuss the
perspectives of extended plasma formations for efficient HHG and
nonlinear optical plasma spectroscopy. The book will be useful for
students and scholars working in this highly multidisciplinary
domain involving material science, nonlinear optics and laser
spectroscopy. It brings the new researcher to the very frontier of
the physics of the interaction between laser and extended plasma;
for the expert it will serve as an essential guide and indicate
directions for future research.
