Plasmas from laser ablated nanoparticles and solid targets are used for high harmonic generation (HHG). These new materials potentially lead to increased efficiencies of the process as well as to higher cut-off energies. Some materials also show a single enhanced harmonic through Fano resonances in the recombination step. As source an amplified Ti:sapphire laser system with pulse durations of about 40 fs and pulse energies of up to 4 mJ at a repetition rate of 1 kHz is used. For the ablation a small part of the uncompressed radiation from the same laser is branched off. The delay between the pulses depends on the mass of the ablated material. HHG has been studied for Cu, Zn, Ag and carbon and silver. Comparative conversion efficiencies are presented for laser ablated carbon plasmas and gaseous argon plasmas.
