We measured the transient absorption changes of a near-infrared (NIR) pulse in GaAs quantum well under a multicycle THz wave driving. By changing the delay between the NIR probe and the THz wave, the absorption strength can be modulated on a sub-cycle timescale of THz wave, indicating the formation of THz-induced dressed states of excitons.
The nonlinear interactions of GaAs quantum wells with intense single cycle terahertz (THz) pulses with amplitudes exceeding 1 MV/cm have been studied. We demonstrated for the first time that the number of carriers is enhanced 103 times more with an increase of the electric field amplitude of the THz pulse from 0.5 to 1 MV/cm, eventually which leading a bright near-infrared luminescence. This highly...
Recent development of ultrashort pulse technologies allows us to drive large amplitude motion of electron and ion coherently. The intense terahertz (THz) pulse resonant with the vibration frequency is promising to drive vibrations more directly and in coherent manner. In the case of semiconductors, one may coherently control the electronic system in the sub-level structures of quantum structures with...
The excitonic interaction in ZnSe/ZnMgSSe multiple quantum wells with intense terahertz pulses (~70 kV/cm) has been studied. Our results show a dynamical Stark effect on the excitonic absorption with a subpicosecond response time.
Intense monocycle THz pulse can drive large-amplitude vibration mode which gives us a chance to perform novel THz nonlinear spectroscopy. We experimentally demonstrated large amplitude anharmonic intermolecular vibration mode using intense monocycle THz pulse. We performed the nonlinear transmission spectroscopy of the amino acids micro-crystals at different electric field amplitude and observed the...
We propose a novel technique for the generation of high power monocycle terahertz (THz) pulse beyond excitation pulse width limitation. When intense THz electric field generated by optical rectification lies in EO crystal, optical pulse itself gets modulated by emitted THz electric field. It causes excitation pulse compression and consequently gives rise to the enhancement of generation efficiency...
We experimentally demonstrate terahertz (THz) nonlinear transmission spectroscopy of the amino acids microcrystals using intense mono-cycle THz pulse. Absorptions of intermolecular vibration mode are saturated with incident electric field amplitude. This is due to the rearrangements of population distributed in an anharmonic intermolecular vibration potential. This will open a new THz pump probe spectroscopy...
We propose a novel technique for the generation of high power monocycle terahertz pulse beyond the excitation pulse width limitation. Optical pulse may get modulated by emitted intense THz electric field. This causes excitation pulse compression and consequently gives rise to the enhancement of generation efficiency and its bandwidth. We experimentally demonstrate this chi(2) cascaded processes using...
The guided waves in the surface plasmon polariton gap waveguide (SPGW) excited through an aperture have been investigated by the three-dimensional simulations using a volume integral equation. The complex propagation constants of the guided waves have been calculated from the simulated optical fields using the least-squares fitting. Applications of SPGWs to nanosize E-plane planar optical circuits...
Electric field coupling antenna useful especially for wide band near-field file transfer in LWB (low band) frequency range was developed. It shows some remarkable characteristics, for example, polarization free, wide bandwidth, and strong coupling in near- and middle-field in spite of low radiation in far- field. New applications in near-field communication can be realized with this antenna.
We investigated surface phonon polariton resonance in cesium iodide by terahertz time-domain attenuated total reflection spectroscopy. Systematic experimental results are directly accounted by the strong enhancement of the electric field at the interface.
