Abstract
We review the main results concerning high-order generation processes from the point of view of a potential user of this new source of XUV r adiation. The perspectives for optimizing the source, both in efficien cy and in spectral range, its characteristics and in particular, its c oherence properties, are discussed. Finally, we describe two experimen ts, which demonstrate the usefulness of the harmonics as a short-pulse , coherent source in the XUV domain.
