Continuous terahertz wave emission using tunable dual-wavelength erbium-doped fiber laser

摘要

We demonstrate a continuous THz emission using a low-temperature-grown InGaAs photomixer and a widely tunable dual-wavelength erbium-doped fiber laser as an optical beat source. The wavelength spacing can be tuned from 2.3 nm to 8.8 nm which corresponds to the CW THz frequency from 0.3 to 1.1 THz.
