Terahertz Generators and Detectors

Organic crystals polished, coated and mounted for optical applications
Terahertz generators and detectors are produced and optically prepared
at the facilities of Rainbow Photonics in Switzerland.

Features

  • Efficient THz generation using optical rectification of femtosecond pump pulses
  • Efficient THz generation using nonlinear optical difference frequency generation
  • Optimized for pump wavelengths of 1.2−1.6 μm; 0.7−0.8 μm available upon request
  • Efficient electro-optic THz detector

Specifications

  • Aperture: 2, 3, 4 or 5 mm; others upon request
  • Damage threshold: 150 GW/cm2 @150 fs pulse length
  • Photon conversion efficiency: 2·10-4/MW-peak-power
