Transform-limited, narrow-linewidth, terahertz-wave parametric generator
An injection-seeded nanosecond terahertz ~THz! wave parametric generator was demonstrated using nonlinear crystals that were pumped by a single frequency Nd:yttrium–aluminum–garnet laser. Spectrum narrowing to the Fourier transform limit ~n51.58 THz, Dn,200 MHz! was achieved by injection seeding the idler wave ~near-infrared Stokes!. This resulted in a THz-wave output power ~900 pJ/pulse, .100 ...
متن کاملNarrow linewidth Brillouin laser based on chalcogenide photonic chip.
We present, to the best of our knowledge, the first demonstration of a narrow linewidth, waveguide-based Brillouin laser that is enabled by large Brillouin gain of a chalcogenide chip. The waveguides are equipped with vertical tapers for low-loss coupling. Due to optical feedback for the Stokes wave, the lasing threshold is reduced to 360 mW, which is five times lower than the calculated single...
متن کاملRoom temperature continuous wave, monolithic tunable THz sources based on highly efficient mid-infrared quantum cascade lasers.
A compact, high power, room temperature continuous wave terahertz source emitting in a wide frequency range (ν~1-5 THz) is of great importance to terahertz system development for applications in spectroscopy, communication, sensing, and imaging. Here, we present a strong-coupled strain-balanced quantum cascade laser design for efficient THz generation based on intracavity difference frequency g...
متن کامل17 THz Continuous - Wave Optical Modulator
We use coherently rotating hydrogen molecules and demonstrate a continuous-wave (CW) optical modulator at a frequency of 17.6 THz that can modulate any laser within the optical region of the spectrum. The molecules are prepared in a coherent state by using two intense laser beams spaced by the Raman transition frequency inside a high finesse cavity. PACS numbers: 42.65.Dr, 42.65.Re, 42.50.Gy
متن کاملAbstract—Narrow linewidth THz generation using a cascaded Brillouin fibre laser structure and a unitraveling carrier
Narrow linewidth THz generation using a cascaded Brillouin fibre laser structure and a unitraveling carrier photodiode is proposed. Using two distributed feedback lasers separated by > 1 THz with 1 MHz initial linewidth, the linewidth of the realized THz source is found to be < 100 Hz at 1014.7 GHz without use of any active stabilization of the laser cavity or any microwave reference.
