Terahertz Emission From Magneto-plasma Oscillations in Semiconductors
Ultrafast terahertz spectroscopy can be used to probe charge and spin dynamics in semiconductors. We have studied THz emission from bulk InAs and GaAs and from GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells as a function of magnetic field. Ultrashort pulses of THz radiation were produced at semiconductor surfaces by photoexcitation with a femtosecond TiSapphire laser, and we recorded the THz emission spectrum and t...
متن کاملTerahertz emission from GaAs and InAs in a magnetic field
We have studied terahertz ~THz! emission from InAs and GaAs in a magnetic field, and find that the emitted radiation is produced by coupled cyclotron-plasma charge oscillations. Ultrashort pulses of THz radiation were produced at semiconductor surfaces by photoexcitation with a femtosecond Ti-sapphire laser. We recorded the integrated THz power and the THz emission spectrum as a function of mag...
متن کاملEnhancement of terahertz radiation by CW infrared laser excitation in a doubly interdigitated grating gates transistors
We report on a broadband terahertz emission from a doubly interdigitated grating gates high electron mobility transistor. The observed emission was explained as due to the excitation of multi mode of plasmons: thermally excited incoherent modes and instability-driven coherent modes. The experiment was performed using Fourier spectrometer system coupled with high sensitive 4K Silicon bolometer u...
متن کاملTopological insulators are tunable waveguides for hyperbolic polaritons
We present a theoretical analysis showing that layered topological insulators, for example, Bi2Se3 are optically hyperbolic materials in the range of terahertz (THz) frequencies. As such, these topological insulators possess deeply subdiffractional, highly directional collective modes: hyperbolic phonon polaritons. We predict that in thin crystals the dispersion of these modes is split into dis...
متن کاملQuantitative comparison of terahertz emission from (100) InAs surfaces and a GaAs large-aperture photoconductive switch at high fluences.
InAs has previously been reported to be an efficient emitter of terahertz radiation at low excitation fluences by use of femtosecond laser pulses. The scaling and saturation of terahertz emission from a (100) InAs surface as a function of excitation fluence is measured and quantitatively compared with the emission from a GaAs large-aperture photoconductive switch. We find that, although the ins...
