Modification and ab-initio spectroscopic application of modified commerce terahertz spectrometer by using homemade parts

摘要

Ab-initio study on modification of commerce terahertz spectrometer with time resolution Z-3 (Zomega, USA) by substitution of ZnTe & GaP detectors and LT-GaAs generator for homemade of pure and S-doped GaSe is carried out. It was established that in spite of not optimized parameters pure and doped GaSe:S(0.3 mass%) crystal are comparable, relatively, in generation efficiency and detection sensitivity to commerce units due to lower nonlinear optical loss and much higher damage threshold. The advantages are in force from pump fluences of below 5 mJ/cm~2 for pure GaSe. The closer S-doping to optimal concentration, the lover fluences resulting in the advantages. Pure and S-doped GaSe demonstrate higher reliability and larger dynamic range of operation. Recorded absorption spectra well match known spectra.
