Rashid A. Ganeev is a Senior Researcher at University of Latvia, Riga, Latvia. His main area of research is the nonlinear optics, particularly high-order harmonics generation of laser radiation in laser-induced plasmas and investigation of the nonlinear optical properties of various materials. He is also interested in the investigation of the coherent extreme ultraviolet radiation sources and high-power solid state laser physics. Dr. Ganeev has published nine monographs based on the studies of the low-and high-order nonlinear optical properties of various materials, as well as more than 400 papers in peer-reviewed journals.
