  • Abstract
    We report on the observation and study of terahertz (THz) photoluminescence (PL) from IV-group semiconductors (silicon and germanium) under continuous wave interband optical excitation at room temperature. Properties of the observed THz PL allow it to be attributed to a black-body like emission due to heating effects in the region of absorption of pump radiation.
