چکیده
Visible/near-infraredlaser-induced difference spectroscopy basedon a time-domain terahertz system has beendeveloped, and used to study copperpathancyonine. We find that the absorptionpeak of this molecule at 1.08 THz changessignificantly under 790 nm laserexcitation, suggesting that we haveobserved the first evidence of vibrationalmode changes in the THz range induced byvisible/near-infrared light.

Nonlinear two-dimensional terahertz photon echo and rotational spectroscopy in the gas phase.
Ultrafast 2D spectroscopy uses correlated multiple light-matter interactions for retrieving dynamic features that may otherwise be hidden under the linear spectrum; its extension to the terahertz regime of the electromagnetic spectrum, where a rich variety of material degrees of freedom reside, remains an experimental challenge. We report a demonstration of ultrafast 2D terahertz spectroscopy o...
متن کاملTerahertz Plasmonic Field-Induced Conductivity Modulation in Gold
We report the observation of terahertz (THz) electric field induced conductivity modulation in sub-wavelength gold plasmonic media. Through all-THz pump-probe time-resolved transmission spectroscopy, we demonstrate that the presence of induced surface charges influences near-field mediated light propagation. The phenomenon is ascribed to the enhanced metal conductivity due to enhanced surface d...
متن کاملTerahertz pulsed spectroscopy of human Basal cell carcinoma.
Good contrast is seen between normal tissue and regions of tumor in terahertz pulsed imaging of basal cell carcinoma (BCC). To date, the source of contrast at terahertz frequencies is not well understood. In this paper we present results of a spectroscopy study comparing the terahertz properties (absorption coefficient and refractive index) of excised normal human skin and BCC. Both the absorpt...

متن کاملImaging molecular adsorption and desorption dynamics on graphene using terahertz emission spectroscopy
Being an atomically thin material, graphene is known to be extremely susceptible to its environment, including defects and phonons in the substrate on which it is placed as well as gas molecules that surround it. Thus, any device design using graphene has to take into consideration all surrounding components, and device performance needs to be evaluated in terms of environmental influence. Howe...
