Abstract
A Sellmeier dispersion of zinc germanium diphosphide (ZnGeP2) crystal has been formulated to determine the phase-matching characteristics of the crystal for the generation of coherent tunable terahertz radiation by difference-frequency mixing techniques. The results computed with the formulated Sellmeier dispersion provide an excellent fit to the experimental data.Keywords
