Abstract
It is shown that a plasma fiber waveguide can provide phase matching over extended interaction lengths for the generation of high-order harmonics and difference frequencies through wave mixing or parametric amplification. An important consideration is that the plasma waveguide mode structure is independent of wavelength. Phase matching may be achieved through either frequency tuning or waveguide structure tuning.Keywords
