    摘要: A system and a method for generating tunable ultrafast optical pulses, the method comprising spectral broadening of a laser input beam by propagating the laser input beam in a nonlinear medium of a third-order nonlinear susceptibility χ(3), yielding an output laser spectrum; and one of: i) selecting at least one portion of the output laser spectrum, yielding an output pulse different than the input pulse and centered at a different frequency; ii) temporal compensation and spatial spreading of spectral components of the output laser spectrum; selecting two pulses at two different frequencies; and nonlinearly mixing the two pulses together in a first second-order nonlinear susceptibility χ(2) nonlinear crystal into a third pulse centered at a frequency which is a difference between the frequencies of the first two pulses; and iii) dividing output laser spectrum into a pump beam and a probe beam, directing a pump pulse to a third second-order nonlinear crystal for THz radiation generation; and directing a probe pulse to a third second-order nonlinear crystal for THz radiation reconstruction.

    摘要: A method and system based on spectral domain interferometry for detecting intense THz electric field, allowing the use of thick crystal for spectroscopic purposes, in order to makes long temporal scans for increased spectral resolutions, and overcoming the limitation of over-rotation for presently available high power THz sources. Using this method and system the phase difference of approximately 8898π can be measured, which is 18000 times higher than the phase difference measured by electro-optic sampling (π/2).
