“…In summary it can be said, that for phase-matching to be achieved several linear and nonlinear contributions to phase-mismatch have to be finely balanced, which depend on the type of gas, pressure, focusing geometry, cell position, length of trajectory and laser intensity. These sources define the phase-matching conditions in HHG, and methods to balance them are still researched today [77,80,41]. A summary of different contributions is presented in Figure II.18, where contributions to the XUV wavevector (k q ) and polarization wavevector (κ q ) are listed.…”
