Abstract
The high-order harmonic generation in laser-produced plasma plumes can be useful for producing an efficient source of short-wavelength ultra-short pulses for various applications and studies of the properties of harmonic emitters. The laser ablation induced high-order harmonic generation spectroscopy is a new method for the studies of material science. We discuss the realization of new ideas, which further improved the frequency conversion efficiency through harmonic generation in specially prepared plasmas and allowed the spectral and structural studies of matter through the plasma harmonic spectroscopy. We also present the current status of plasma harmonic studies, and show new trends in the developments of this filed. In particular, we show new approaches in high-order harmonic generation from various plasmas for the studies of the physical properties of materials.
