Far-infrared spectroscopy of hydrogen bonding in nucleobases, nucleosides, and nucleotidesProceedings, IEEE Tenth International Conference on Terahertz Electronics -
B. Fischer, M. Walther, P.U. Jepsen
The far-infrared dielectric properties of organic acids and bases in the condensed phase are dominated by hydrogen bonding between the individual molecules. We have investigated the dielectric properties of nucleobases, nucleosides, and nucleotides. We find that at cold temperatures distinct vibrational modes are present in the frequency range 0.1-4 THz. These modes originate from ordered hydrogen...... hiện toàn bộ

Novel concept for THz-photomixer based on periodically doped heterostructures and quasi ballistic transportProceedings, IEEE Tenth International Conference on Terahertz Electronics -
M. Eckardt, A. Schwanhausser, F. Renner, L. Robledo, A. Friedrich, P. Pohl, P. Kiesel, S. Malzer, G.H. Dohler, D. Driscoll, M. Hanson, A.C. Gossard
Reports on a new concept for THz photomixers, which are not (as usually) frequency limited by the carrier lifetime in low-temperature-grown GaAs. The concept is based on ballistic electron transport in a periodically doped heterostructure (p-i-n-p-i-n-superlattice) and allows for impedance matching to the attached antenna.

Coherent and incoherent intersubband dynamicsProceedings, IEEE Tenth International Conference on Terahertz Electronics -
T. Muller, R. Bratschitsch, W. Parz, G. Strasser, K. Unterrainer
Presents time-resolved measurements of photoinduced intersubband absorption in an undoped GaAs/AlGaAs coupled quantum well excited by an ultrashort interband optical pulse. An interband pump pulse injects electrons into the first and second subband of an undoped asymmetric double quantum well (ADQW) with a level spacing smaller than the LO phonon energy. The time evolution of the electron populati...... hiện toàn bộ

Terahertz electroluminescence due to light hole-heavy hole intersubband transitions in p-type Si/SiGe quantum cascade structures has been observed in both surface-normal and edge emission geometries. THz output powers of up to 50 nW have been observed for surface emission from 100 period Si/sub 0.76/Ge/sub 0.24//Si heterostructures grown on a Si/sub 0.8/Ge/sub 0.2/ relaxed buffer or 'virtual subst...... hiện toàn bộ

Light-induced difference Terahertz spectroscopy and its biomedical applicationsProceedings, IEEE Tenth International Conference on Terahertz Electronics -
Y.C. Shen, P. Upadhya, A.G. Davies, E.H. Linfield
Laser-induced difference THz spectroscopy has been used to investigate three samples with different lifetimes. The spectroscopy system is based on a 10 nJ titanium sapphire laser with a pulse duration of 12 fs and a centre wavelength of 790 nm. For semi-insulting (SI) GaAs and high-resistivity (HR) silicon samples, absorption in the THz range is mainly a result of mobile electrons. A lifetime of a...... hiện toàn bộ

Design and performance of a novel vacuum-capable terahertz time-domain spectrometerProceedings, IEEE Tenth International Conference on Terahertz Electronics -
Y.C. Shen, P. Upadhya, E.H. Linfield, A.G. Davies
We have designed and built a vacuum-capable terahertz (THz) time-domain spectrometer which allows THz spectroscopy measurements to be made whilst avoiding interference from, for example, water vapour absorption. Using a biased semi-insulating GaAs emitter and a 1-mm-thick [110] oriented ZnTe crystal as an electro-optic detection sensor, we achieved a dynamic range of over 10/sup 10/ in THz power a...... hiện toàn bộ

Photoexcitation of shallow impurity centers in silicon at low temperatures (<10 K) yields stimulated emission from intra-center optical transitions in the terahertz range. The population inversion mechanisms are based on the peculiarities of electron-phonon interaction, leading to the existence of either a relatively long-living excited impurity state or a group of unpopulated impurity states.

Femtosecond experiments using single-cycle pulses at 30 THz: the buildup of screening in a photoexcited electron-hole plasmaProceedings, IEEE Tenth International Conference on Terahertz Electronics -
A. Leitenstorfer, R. Huber, F. Tauser, A. Brodschelm
We report on a new class of ultrabroadband THz experiments with a time resolution as high as 30 fs. The measurements rely on single-cycle probe transients which are generated via optical rectification of 10 fs near-infrared pulses in a thin GaSe nonlinear crystal. The electric field of these pulses is directly monitored via ultrabroadband electro-optic detection. On a femtosecond time scale, we ob...... hiện toàn bộ
