The high-order harmonic spectra from laser-ablated tin plasma plumes are investigated experimentally and theoretically at different laser wavelengths. It is found that the harmonic cutoff is extended to ∼84 eV and the harmonic yield is greatly improved by decreasing the driving laser wavelength from 800 nm to 400 nm. Appling the Perelomov-Popov-Terent'ev theory with the semiclassical cutoff law and one-dimensional time-dependent Schrödinger equation, the contribution of the Sn ion to harmonic generation accounts for the cutoff extension at 400 nm. With the qualitative analysis of the phase mismatching effect, we reveal the phase matching caused by the dispersion of free electrons is greatly optimized in the 400 nm driving field relative to the 800 nm driving field. The high-order harmonic generated from laser-ablated tin plasma plumes driven by the short laser wavelength provides a promising way to extend cutoff energy and generate intensely coherent extreme ultraviolet radiation.
