Coherent terahertz radiation source |
摘要 |
A THz radiation source comprising a dual waveguide heterostructure is provided. The dual waveguide heterostructure includes an optical waveguide contained within a larger THz waveguide layered structure. The radiation source provides a coherent guided wave of THz radiation which is generated via difference frequency mixing in a gain medium with a large second-order nonlinearity and propagated with low THz loss by a dielectric medium in the layered waveguide structure. The THz radiation source is compact, has a high power output, and may be operated in continuous-wave (CW) mode at room temperature.
