Emission of coherent THz radiation from superconductors.
Compact solid-state sources of terahertz (THz) radiation are being sought for sensing, imaging, and spectroscopy applications across the physical and biological sciences. We demonstrate that coherent continuous-wave THz radiation of sizable power can be extracted from intrinsic Josephson junctions in the layered high-temperature superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8. In analogy to a laser cavity, the ex...
متن کاملA route for a strong increase of critical current in nanostrained iron-based superconductors
The critical temperature Tc and the critical current density Jc determine the limits to large-scale superconductor applications. Superconductivity emerges at Tc. The practical current-carrying capability, measured by Jc, is the ability of defects in superconductors to pin the magnetic vortices, and that may reduce Tc. Simultaneous increase of Tc and Jc in superconductors is desirable but very d...
متن کاملUltra-broadband THz time-domain spectroscopy of common polymers using THz air photonics
Terahertz-range dielectric properties of the common polymers low-density polyethylene (LDPE), cyclic olefin/ethylene copolymer (TOPAS), polyamide-6 (PA6), and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE or Teflon) are characterized in the ultra-broadband frequency window 2-15 THz, using a THz time-domain spectrometer employing air-photonics for the generation and detection of single-cycle sub-50 fs THz trans...
متن کاملElectrical characterization to 4 THz of IV- and P-type GaAs using THz time-domain spectroscopy
In contrast to silicon, it is not possible to electrically characterize GaAs wafers with simple mechanical contacts, due to the Schottky barrier at the metal/GaAs interface. For such characterization ohmic contacts must be fabricated on the wafer itself. Accordingly, manufacturers specifications on device-grade GaAs wafers are relatively imprecise. This is especially true for N-type doping, due...
متن کاملLiquid Crystal Colloids Studied by THz Time-Domain Spectroscopy
THz time-domain spectroscopy is used to measure the frequency dependent (0.2– 2.0 THz) complex refractive index of a pure liquid crystal (LC), 40-n-pentyl-4-cyanobiphenyl (5CB), and its LC colloids with SiO2 particles. While the refractive index of the pure LC is found to vary markedly due to distinct orientated domains within the sample, the LC colloids provide us with very stable and reproduc...
