Description

Device for generating terahertz waves by collinear circular polarization long-wave bicolor field
Technical Field
The utility model relates to a terahertz optics technical field especially relates to a device that collineation circular polarization long wave double-colored field produced terahertz wave.
Background
The terahertz wave frequency band is located at 0.1-10 THz (unit: terahertz), has the advantages of low photon energy (single photon energy is only m eV magnitude), high penetrability (for nonmetal and nonpolar materials), strong absorbability (for polar materials and biological macromolecules) and the like, and can be widely applied to the fields of medical imaging, security inspection, optical communication and the like. In order to apply terahertz waves to various fields better, a strong terahertz radiation source is indispensable.
The generation method of the terahertz pulse comprises a photoconductive antenna method based on a photoconductive antenna, an optical rectification effect and an optical difference frequency effect based on a nonlinear crystal, and an air plasma method based on air ionization. However, when the terahertz pulse is generated by using the photoconductive antenna and the nonlinear crystal, the intensity of the generated terahertz wave is limited by the damage threshold of the generating material, so that strong terahertz radiation is difficult to generate; and the air plasma method is utilized, the limitation of a damage threshold value is not needed to be considered, and strong terahertz radiation can be effectively generated by increasing the intensity of the pumping pulse.
At present, the double-color field circular polarization pumping method is the most effective strong terahertz pulse generation method in the current air plasma method, and the conversion efficiency is more than 5 times of that of the double-color field linear polarization pumping method. In the prior art, the dual-color field circular polarization pumping method mainly utilizes a Mach-Zehnder optical fiber interferometer structure to realize the beam splitting and beam combining of an 800nm dual-color field, so that the relative phase of the dual-color field is very easily influenced by factors such as ambient temperature, vibration and the like. To reduce this effect, another continuous laser beam was introduced and feedback controlled using a piezoelectric transducer. This feedback design may improve the stability of the system to some extent, but the structure becomes more complex and the improvement is less effective at low pulse repetition rates or single-shot applications. In addition, the 800nm light field has significant dispersion with its harmonic fields, which is not conducive to accurate circular polarization control for the dichromatic field.
