Intense terahertz radiation and their applications
In this paper, we will review both past and recent progresses in the generation, detection and application of intense terahertz (THz) radiation. We will restrict the review to laser based intense few-cycle THz sources, and thus will not include sources such as synchrotron-based or narrowband sources. We will first review the various methods used for generating intense THz radiation, including p...
متن کاملTerahertz Wave Emission from Intrinsic Josephson Junctions in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ
We have studied the conditions for the THz radiation in many systems with different shapes and dimensions such as rectangles, squares, cylinders and (equilateral and isosceles including right-angled isosceles) triangles and rectangles with non-uniform width (asymmetric rectangles) fabricated from single crystals of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ, which are known as a typical intrinsic Josephson junction syste...
متن کاملEmission 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 کاملJosephson-vortex-flow terahertz emission in layered high-Tc superconducting single crystals.
We report on the successful terahertz emission (0.6-1 THz) that is continuous and tunable in its frequency and power, by driving Josephson vortices in resonance with the collective standing Josephson plasma modes excited in stacked Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x intrinsic Josephson junctions. Shapiro-step detection was employed to confirm the terahertz-wave emission. Our results provide a strong feasibility o...
متن کاملTerahertz Josephson plasma waves in layered superconductors: spectrum, generation, nonlinear and quantum phenomena
The recent growing interest in terahertz (THz) and sub-THz science and technology is due to its many important applications in physics, astronomy, chemistry, biology and medicine, including THz imaging, spectroscopy, tomography, medical diagnosis, health monitoring, environmental control, as well as chemical and biological identification. We review the problem of linear and nonlinear THz and su...
