Terahertz emission based on large-area photoconductive emitters illuminated via beam interference
The use of beam interference in combination with a large-area photoconductive emitter for the generation of pulsed terahertz (THz) radiation is presented. An interference pattern with a period twice that of the THz emitter is generated with a transmission phase grating, placed directly in front of the photoconductive emitter. This way, efficient THz generation is achieved with a single metallis...
متن کاملA polarization-insensitive plasmonic photoconductive terahertz emitter
We present a polarization-insensitive plasmonic photoconductive terahertz emitter that uses a two-dimensional array of nanoscale cross-shaped apertures as the plasmonic contact electrodes. The geometry of the cross-shaped apertures is set to maximize optical pump absorption in close proximity to the contact electrodes. The two-dimensional symmetry of the cross-shaped apertures offers a polariza...
متن کاملReview of terahertz photoconductive antenna technology
Photoconductive antennas (PCAs) have been extensively utilized for the generation and detection of both pulsed broadband and single frequency continuous wave terahertz (THz) band radiation. These devices form the basis of many THz imaging and spectroscopy systems, which have demonstrated promising applications in various industries and research fields. The development of THz PCA technology thro...
متن کاملPhotoconductive terahertz generation from textured semiconductor materials
Photoconductive (PC) terahertz (THz) emitters are often limited by ohmic loss and Joule heating-as these effects can lead to thermal runaway and premature device breakdown. To address this, the proposed work introduces PC THz emitters based on textured InP materials. The enhanced surface recombination and decreased charge-carrier lifetimes of the textured InP materials reduce residual photocurr...
متن کاملApplications using high-Tc superconducting terahertz emitters
Using recently-developed THz emitters constructed from single crystals of the high-Tc superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ, we performed three prototype tests of the devices to demonstrate their unique characteristic properties for various practical applications. The first is a compact and simple transmission type of THz imaging system using a Stirling cryocooler. The second is a high-resolution Mich...
