Abstract:

Harmonic orders up to the 68th in first order diffraction and the 75th in second order have been observed during the interaction of a picosecond, 1053-nm laser pulse with a solid target for intensities of 10(19) Wcm(-2). Measurements of the conversion efficiency, spatial coherence, and angular distribution show that this source has already achieved a spectral brightness second only to collisional XUV lasers. Future directions of investigation are outlined.
