TUNABLE GENERATION OF TERAHERTZ RADIATION

摘要

A method of tunable generation of terahertz radiation comprising: (A) providing a magnon gain medium; wherein the magnon gain medium supports generation of nonequilibrium magnons; (B) generating terahertz radiation in the magnon gain medium; and (C) tuning frequency of the terahertz radiation by causing changes in an external parameter. The substantial tuning of the frequency of the generated terahertz radiation can be achieved by applying an external magnetic field, and by causing changes in a value of the external magnetic field.
