Parallel-Plate Waveguide Terahertz Time Domain Spectroscopy for Ultrathin Conductive Films
Development of techniques for characterization of extremely thin films is an important challenge in terahertz (THz) science and applications. Spectroscopic measurements of materials on the nanometer scale or of atomic layer thickness (2D materials) require a sufficient terahertz wave–matter interaction length, which is challenging to achieve in conventional transmission geometry. Waveguide-base...
متن کاملTerahertz Time-Domain Spectroscopy of Metallic Particle Ensembles
The terahertz (THz) frequency range is the region of the electromagnetic spectrum between the microwave and optical bands spanning from 0.1 THz to 10 THz. Historically, electromagnetic radiation in this frequency range has been inaccessible due to the lack of widespread electronic or laser-based radiation sources. Electronic radiation sources such as crystal oscillators are generally confined t...
متن کاملPhotoexcited GaAs surfaces studied by transient terahertz time-domain spectroscopy.
The transmission characteristics of an air-GaAs interface and the transient absorption and index spectra of the thin, photoexcited surface layer are investigated subsequent to excitation by a femtosecond laser pulse. We find that the total phase change and transmission of a terahertz (THz) probe pulse are dominated by interface effects. This observation has important implications in the interpr...
متن کاملTwo-dimensional photonic crystal slabs in parallel-plate metal waveguides studied with terahertz time-domain spectroscopy
In this paper, we report our experimental study on two-dimensional photonic crystal slabs embedded inside parallel-plate metal waveguides, using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy. We observe that the temporal response of the photonic crystal slabs is significantly dispersed, indicative of strong dispersion near the edges of the photonic band gap. In the frequency domain, we observe several gap...
متن کاملUncertainty in terahertz time-domain spectroscopy measurement
Measurements of optical constants at terahertz—or T-ray—frequencies have been performed extensively using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS). Spectrometers, together with physical models explaining the interaction between a sample and T-ray radiation, are progressively being developed. Nevertheless, measurement errors in the optical constants, so far, have not been systematically anal...
