Optimal control techniques combined with femtosecond laser pulse shaping are applied to enhance the strong-field induced emission of highly charged atomic ions from silver clusters isolated in helium nanodroplets. We report on a substantial increase of the yield of Agz+ (z≥10) with the optmized pulses when comparing to single bandwidth-limited or down-chirped pulses at constant fluence. A remarkable simple double-pulse structure containing a low-intensity pre-pulse and a stronger post-pulse turns out to produce the highest atomic charge states up to z=20. A numerical control experiment based on a modified version of the nanoplasma model converge to a similar pulse envelope, underlining the leading role of plasmons in the generation of highly charged ions from intense laser-cluster interaction.
