Abstract
We demonstrate an ultrafast 10 μm sized, electric dipole source of terahertz radiation closely coupled to a 1 cm spherical mirror. This optical approach has the advantages of subpicosecond response times with essentially complete collection efficiency. Using this technique, we have generated and detected subpicosecond freely propagating electrical pulses.Keywords
