Abstract

We demonstrate ultrabroadband THz-wave generation and detection in a compact system based on a femtosecond fiber laser at 1560 nm and optical rectification in organic electro-optic crystals DSTMS. Terahertz time-domain spectroscopy with a spectrum extending up to 20 THz with a maximum bandwidth exceeding 70 dB is possible with this system.
