Terahertz (THz) science and technology have greatly progressed over the past two decades
to a point where the THz region of the electromagnetic spectrum is now a mature research …

Time-resolved, pulsed terahertz spectroscopy has developed into a powerful tool to study
charge carrier dynamics in semiconductors and semiconductor structures over the past …

In this paper, we will review both past and recent progresses in the generation, detection
and application of intense terahertz (THz) radiation. We will restrict the review to laser based …

Chemical and physical systems undergoing change display spectral signatures from the
radio frequency to the X-ray region of the electromagnetic spectrum. This has led to the …

Ultrafast optics has undergone a revolution in the past two decades, driven by new methods
of pulse generation, amplification, manipulation, and measurement. We review the …

Terahertz waves, which lie in the frequency range of 0.1-10 THz, have long been
investigated in a few limited fields, such as astronomy, because of a lack of devices for their …

As the volume of composite parts continues to rise, quality and performance specifications
are becoming more and more demanding. In this context, robust and reliable nondestructive …

In this paper techniques for the generation and measurement of ultrashort pulses in the
frequency range from about 0.1 to 10 THz are reviewed. The methods for generation are …

We report the observation of subpicosecond terahertz (T-ray) pulses with energies≥ 460 μ J
from a laser-driven ion accelerator, thus rendering the peak power of the source higher even …

Slow motion movies allow us to see intricate details of the mechanical dynamics of complex
phenomena. If the images in each frame are replaced by terahertz (THz) waves, such …
