title: Efficient selection of single high-order harmonic caused by atomic autoionizing state influence.
abstract: It is shown that the influence of atomic autoionizing states on the phase matching of high harmonic generation results in efficient selection of the single harmonic generated in the plateau region. The change of relative concentration of the atomic medium components and variation of the fundamental laser frequency can be used for tuning of the selected harmonic frequency. The possibility of achievement of contrast for the selected single harmonic of more than 10(4) at intensity conversion efficiency of approximately 10(-3) has been shown.
