The near-field enhancement in metallic nanostructures can be used to study numerous strong-field effects within confined volumes, such as the generation of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light. [1,2] Here, we present a comprehensive study of highly nonlinear processes in plasmonic nanostructures, including resonant bow-tie antennas as well as tapered hollow waveguides. In particular, we will discuss the excitation mechanisms and spectral characteristics of nanostructure-enhanced fluorescent line emission from noble gases. To this end, we have developed a method to gauge plasmonic fields in nanostructures, which is based on the spectral fingerprint of strong-field fluorescence. Prospects and limitations of EUV generation in nanoscopic volumes will be elucidated.
