The main focus is on studies\nusing extended plasmas, but some new findings from HHG experiments in narrow\nplasma plumes are also discussed. It also describes how quasi-phase-matching in\nmodulated plasmas, as demonstrated in recent studies, has revealed different\nmeans of tuning enhanced harmonic groups in the XUV region. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter an introduction to the fundamental\ntheoretical and experimental aspects of HHG, a review of the most important\nresults of HHG in narrow plasmas is presented, including recent studies of\nsmall-sized plasma plumes as emitters of high-order harmonics. In Chapter 2,\nvarious findings in the application of extended plasmas for harmonic generation\nare analyzed. One of the most important applications of extended plasmas, the\nquasi-phase-matching of generated harmonics, is demonstrated in Chapter 3,\nincluding various approaches to the modification of perforated plasma plumes.\nChapter 4 depicts the nonlinear optical features of extended plasmas produced\non the surfaces of different non-metal materials.  Chapter 5 is dedicated\nto the analysis of new opportunities for extended plasma induced HHG. The\nadvantages of the application of long plasma plumes for HHG, such as resonance\nenhancement and double-pulse method, are discussed in Chapter 6. Finally, a\nsummary section brings together all of these findings and discuss the\nperspectives of extended plasma formations for efficient HHG and nonlinear\noptical plasma spectroscopy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book will be useful for students and\nscholars working in this highly multidisciplinary domain involving material\nscience, nonlinear optics and laser spectroscopy.
