The role of two-photon absorption and source size for THz generation in ZnTe

When focusing laser beam to a nonlinear crystal ZnTe the efficiency of THz pulse generation may be considerably limited by a two-photon absorption and small dimensions of polarization source compared to THz wavelength. The role of these factors were experimentally and theoretically studied, directio...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:When focusing laser beam to a nonlinear crystal ZnTe the efficiency of THz pulse generation may be considerably limited by a two-photon absorption and small dimensions of polarization source compared to THz wavelength. The role of these factors were experimentally and theoretically studied, direction diagrams were measured.
