| الوصف: | High-harmonic generation (HHG) normally requires a careful adjustment of the driving laser intensity (typically $10^{14} - 10^{15}$ W/cm$^2$) and gas medium parameters to enable good phase matching conditions. In contrast with conventional wisdom, we present experimental results indicating phase-matched HHG in all rare gases, using a high-density medium and a driver laser intensity of around $10^{16}$ W/cm$^2$. The experimental results are corroborated by theoretical simulations, which indicate that ionization-induced self-phase modulation and plasma defocusing self-regulate the driver laser intensity to a level that is appropriate for good phase matching. A ten-fold broadening of the NIR spectrum is observed, which results in the generation of continuous spectra from $18-140$ eV in spite of using 50-fs-long driving pulses. The presented scheme represents a simple and versatile concept for the generation of XUV and soft X-ray continua, which are ideally suited for transient absorption and reflection spectroscopy.
