Nonphasematched broadband THz amplification and reshaping in a dispersive chi(3) medium

Biphoton in a Dispersive Medium

We report an experimental study of group-velocity dispersion effect on an entangled two-photon wavepacket, generated via spontaneous parametric downconversion and propagating through a dispersive medium. Even in the case of using CW laser beam for pump, the biphoton wavepacket and the secondorder correlation function spread significantly. The study and understanding of this phenomenon is of gre...

High-power Broadband Organic THz Generator

The high-power broadband terahertz (THz) generator is an essential tool for a wide range of THz applications. Here, we present a novel highly efficient electro-optic quinolinium single crystal for THz wave generation. For obtaining intense and broadband THz waves by optical-to-THz frequency conversion, a quinolinium crystal was developed to fulfill all the requirements, which are in general ext...

High - efficiency broadband THz wave modulator

We report a high efficiency, broadband terahertz (THz) modulator following a study of phthalocyanine-compound organic films irradiated with an external excitation laser. Both transmission and reflection modulations of each organic/silicon bilayers were measured using THz time-domain and continuous-wave systems. For very low intensities, the experimental results show that AlClPc/Si can achieve a...

Broadband THz Generation from Photoconductive Antenna

Since the observation of radiation in the Terahertz (THz) frequency range from photoconductive antennas exited by femtosecond (fs) laser pulses, considerable efforts have been made to understand the mechanism responsible for THz generation, and to develop applications in THz Time-Domain Spectroscopy (THz-TDS). In this paper, the calculation of THz radiation from biased photoconductive antenna i...
