This review focuses on the generation of energetic (hot) electrons in plasmonic
metastructures and nanomaterials, and their characterization through time-resolved …

Several classes of non-planar metallic and dielectric waveguides have been proposed in
the literature for guidance of terahertz (THz) or T-ray radiation. In this review, we focus on the …

Using the method of time-domain spectroscopy, we measure the far-infrared absorption and
dispersion from 0.2 to 2 THz of the crystalline dielectrics sapphire and quartz, fused silica …

This book presents recent and important developments in the field of terahertz radiation, with
a particular focus on pulsed terahertz radiation. Situated in the gap between electronics and …

Experimental verification of analytic formulas for the dispersion and the attenuation of
electrical transient signals propagating on coplanar transmission lines is presented. The …

We report experimental investigations in which quasi-optical methods were used to
efficiently couple freely propagating, optoelectronically generated, subpicosecond pulses of …

Abstract Systems for THz transmission using new types of THz waveguides with low loss,
negligible group velocity dispersion and structural simplicity are described herein. The THz …

Graphene, a two-dimensional layer of carbon atoms, is a promising building block for a wide
range of optoelectronic devices owing to its extraordinary electrical and optical properties …

We have demonstrated a new method of generating pulses of freely propagating THz
electromagnetic radiation. The resulting 380 fs pulses are the shortest directly measured …

To combine the advantages of ultrafast femtosecond nano-optics with an on-chip
communication scheme, optical signals with a frequency of several hundreds of THz need to …
