Systems and methods for generating terahertz radiation include a pair of optical horns, each of which forms a gap at respective vertices thereof. The first horn is ruled such that an electron beam interacting with a grating period produces terahertz radiation. The horns are diametrically opposed to one another such that radiation exiting the first horn enters the second horn through the gaps. Systems and methods for generating terahertz radiation include generating and focusing an electron beam adjacent a vertex of an optical horn that is ruled with a grating period. Interaction between the electron beam and the grating period produces the terahertz radiation. A method of evaluating interaction between a material and terahertz radiation includes passing a sample of the material through the radiation. At least one of an effect of the radiation on the material, and an effect of the material on the radiation, is measured.
