Frequency Conversion of Ultrashort Pulses in Extended Laser-Produced Plasmas

This book offers a review of the use ofextended ablation plasmas as nonlinear media for HHG of high-order harmonicgeneration (HHG).  The book describes the different experimentalapproaches, shows the advantages and limitations regarding HHG efficiency anddiscusses the particular processes that take place at longer interactionlengths, including propagation and quasi-phase matching effects.  Itdescr...
