Abstract

n Chap. 18, we demonstrated polarization-sensitive imaging at extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) wavelengths using a gas-phase high-harmonic generation (HHG) source. In a related project, we have investigated new types of gas-phase and solid-state EUV light sources employing field localization in plasmonic nanostructures and structured targets. Whereas our first results indicate that strong field confinement leads to exceedingly inefficient high-harmonic generation in gas-phase targets, for solid-state media efficient high-harmonic generation is possible in localized fields. The latter has great ramifications for new types of high-harmonic generation experiments and technological developments. Therefore, our research efforts aim in two directions: firstly, the development of new types of solid-state sources for high-harmonic generation and, secondly, the application of locally generated solid-state high-harmonic signals for spectroscopy and imaging.
