Abstract :
We have demonstrated kW-peak-power terahertz (THz)-wave parametric generation and 70 dB-dynamic-range detection by using efficient surface-coupling configuration. The system is capable of producing and detecting monochromatic THz-wave pulses in the wide frequency range from 0.8 to 2.8 THz.
