Abstract :
Experimental results using two ways of Terahertz generation from difference frequency generation (DFG) in GaSe crystal and terahertz-wave parametric generator (TPG) in MgO doped LiNbO3 crystal are reported. High power and broad band frequency THz are generated from DFG, and obvious idler light and THz emission are observed from TPG configurations.
