Abstract :
One can observe terahertz (THz) emission upon femtosecond (fs) optical pulse illumination from various materials. Scanning fs laser beam on the materials gives us an image to visualize its dynamic optical response to generate rapid generation of photocurrent. We named the system as laser THz emission microscope (LTEM). In the present work, recent progress of LTEM and its application will be reviewed.
