The first electric current of first electromagnet is flowed through by control and flows through the second electric current of second electromagnet, it is real Now to the tuning of the polarization state of the THz wave.
Specifically, the first electric current is provided for the first electromagnet by the first power supply of setting in the utility model embodiment, if It sets second source and provides the second electric current for the second electromagnet, realized by the first electric current of control and the second electric current to THz wave The tuning of polarization state.Wherein, the first electric current of control includes the size for controlling the first electric current, the first sense of current and the first electricity The generation moment of stream, likewise, the second electric current of control includes size, the second sense of current and second for controlling the second electric current The generation moment of electric current.Specifically can directly it be realized by the first power supply of control and second source respectively to the first electric current and second The control of electric current.Wherein, the first power supply can may be current source for voltage source, and second source can also be with for voltage source For current source, this is not especially limited in the utility model embodiment.

On the basis of the above embodiments, the THz wave hair that the polarization state provided in the utility model embodiment is tunable Emitter, it is when first magnetic field and second magnetic field at the position of the ferromagnetic nano thin-film generate simultaneously, then described The polarization state of THz wave is linear polarization.
Specifically, when being evenly distributed as the external magnetic field locating for the ferromagnetic nano thin-film, ferromagnetic nano thin-film can be made to pass through After pumping laser irradiation, the THz wave of linear polarization is generated.In the utility model embodiment, when the position of ferromagnetic nano thin-film First magnetic field and the second magnetic field at place is when generating simultaneously, the first magnetic field and the second magnetic field and magnetic field be then to be uniformly distributed, therefore It can produce the THz wave that polarization state is linear polarization.
Due to can generate the first magnetic field and second when stream has electric current respectively inside the first electromagnet and the second electromagnet Magnetic field, so generate simultaneously can be by controlling the first electromagnetism for the first magnetic field at the position of ferromagnetic nano thin-film and the second magnetic field Electrical current (i.e. the first electric current and the second electric current) in iron and the second electromagnet generates realization simultaneously.By controlling the first electric current Size and direction with the second electric current, two for can control the THz wave that linear polarization is generated in ferromagnetic nano thin-film are orthogonal The size of photoelectric current and direction, so control generate linear polarization THz wave radiation intensity and linear polarization it is inclined Shake direction.For example, when the first electric current is zero, the magnetic field side of the polarization direction of the THz wave of generation perpendicular to the second magnetic field To;When the second electric current is zero, the magnetic direction of the polarization direction of the THz wave of generation perpendicular to the first magnetic field.When the first magnetic When the magnetic field strength of field is bigger, saturated magnetization is realized to ferromagnetic nano thin-film, then by the first magnetic field in ferromagnetic nano thin-film The photoelectric current constant magnitude of middle generation, then the polarization direction of the THz wave generated with the second magnetic field magnitude of field intensity Change and rotates.Conversely, realizing saturation magnetic to ferromagnetic nano thin-film when the magnetic field strength in the second magnetic field is bigger Change, then the photoelectric current constant magnitude generated in ferromagnetic nano thin-film by the second magnetic field, then the polarization side of the THz wave generated It is rotated to the change of the magnitude of field intensity with the first magnetic field.When the magnetic field strength in the first magnetic field and the second magnetic field all When sufficiently large, so that magnetic of the ferromagnetic nano thin-film on the magnetic direction in first magnetic field and on the magnetic direction in the second magnetic field Change all reach saturation, then the polarization direction of the THz wave generated respectively with the first magnetic field M1Magnetic direction and the second magnetic field M2Magnetic direction in angle of 45 degrees.

On the basis of the above embodiments, the THz wave hair that the polarization state provided in the utility model embodiment is tunable Emitter, there are between generation moment and the generation moment in the second magnetic field in the first magnetic field at the position of ferromagnetic nano thin-film When two prefixed time intervals, then the polarization state of THz wave is elliptical polarization;
Wherein, the second prefixed time interval specifically: make the THz wave electric field component and second generated in the first magnetic field The time interval of the phase delay not equal to 90 degree is generated between the THz wave electric field component generated in magnetic field.
Specifically, in the utility model embodiment, when the time interval for adjusting the first magnetic field and the generation of the second magnetic field, so that The phase delay between two THz wave electric field components generated by the induction of the two magnetic-field components is not 90 degree just, together When the second prefixed time interval be not zero, then in this case, the polarization state of the THz wave of generation is elliptical polarization.If First magnetic field is generated prior to the second magnetic field, and time interval is unsatisfactory for the phase of the two THz wave electric field components generated just Delay is 90 degree, then such case can produce the THz wave of left-handed elliptical polarization;Similarly, when the second magnetic field is prior to the first magnetic Field generates, and it is 90 degree that time interval is unsatisfactory for the phase delay of the two Terahertz electric field components generated just, then this feelings It can produce the THz wave of right-handed elliptical polarization state under condition.
