Recent efforts to utilize optical field enhancements in metallic nanostructures for high-harmonic generation (HHG) have generated significant interest [S. Kim et al., Nature 453, 575 (2008)]. Using local plasmon resonances, the threshold for HHG can be substantially reduced, allowing for HHG by using unamplified few femtosecond laser oscillators. To date, rather limited information on the characteristics and scaling behavior of the relevant processes is available.
Here, we present the first results of our study on harmonic generation with metallic nanostructures in the presence of a noble gas jet. We demonstrate the significant enhancement of harmonic generation of low orders. Experimental limitations and prospects of the approach are discussed.
