We present experimental studies of high-order harmonic generation in silver plasma ablation performed with the Ti:sapphire laser beams of the Advanced Laser Light Source (800 nm wavelength, 360 mJ total energy). We have independently varied the intensity of the prepulse (which creates the plasma ablation) and the intensity of the main pulse (which generates the harmonics), and studied their influence on the harmonic spectrum. We show here that the presence of doubly ionized atoms in the ablation, created either by a strong prepulse intensity or with the irradiation of the main pulse, is ineffective for the generation of harmonics.
