Conversion efficiency, scaling and global optimization of high harmonic generation

Closed form expressions for the high harmonic generation (HHG) conversion efficiency in the plateau and cut-off region are derived showing agreement with previous observations. Application of these results to optimal HHG-based-XUV-sources is discussed.
