Coherent THz Radiation Emitted from Femtosecond Filaments in Gases
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study THz emission from a single filament and the square matrix of multiple filaments. We show the possibility of the control of the THz radiation divergence by varying the number of filaments in the matrix. In addition we demonstrate the backward THz emission from the bunch of long filaments Keywords—THz generation in gaseous media; femtosecond filament; multiple filament control

Coherent and incoherent radial THz radiation emission from femtosecond filaments in air.
We show that the THz radiation emitted in the radial direction by a femtosecond filament created in air is linearly polarized and coherent. By applying an electric field along the filament axis this THz radiation is strongly enhanced and becomes incoherent and not polarized.
متن کاملNon-radially polarized THz pulse emitted from femtosecond laser filament in air.
Femtosecond laser filament could produce THz wave in forward direction. In our experiment, THz pulse emitted from a femtosecond laser filament has been investigated. It was found that the polarization of the studied THz pulse mainly appears as elliptical. This observation supplements the previous conclusion obtained by C. D'Amico et al. that THz wave emitted by a filament is radially polarized....
متن کاملDevelopment of novel waveguides in the terahertz (THz) region
Terahertz (THz) radiation, often referred to the frequency range from 0.1 to 10 THz, is the focus of an active and fast growing research community. However, this frequency range located in the electromagnetic spectrum between the microwave band and infrared band, was known as the “THz-gap” until the late 1980's. A lack of available coherent sources and detectors rendered this frequency range in...
متن کاملCoherent Synthesis of Terahertz Radiation from Femtosecond Laser Filaments in Air
we report on the coherent synthesis of pulsed Terahertz radiation from femtosecond laser filaments organized in an array. The Terahertz intensity is proportional to the square of the number of the filaments, which provides a simple method for scaling up of the Terahertz energy with powerful femtosecond laser. Moreover, directional off-axis terahertz radiation can be achieved. This paves the way...
متن کاملTerahertz radiation source in air based on bifilamentation of femtosecond laser pulses.
A new terahertz (THz) source in air based on the bifilamentation of femtosecond laser pulses is reported. This THz radiation is 1 order of magnitude more intense than the transition-Cherenkov THz emission from femtosecond laser filaments reported recently and shows different angular and polarization properties. We attribute it to the emission from a bimodal transmission line created by two plas...
