Symmetry breakdown of electron emission in extreme ultraviolet photoionization of argon

Eugenio Ferrari

Short wavelength free-electron lasers (FELs), providing pulses of ultrahigh photon intensity, have revolutionized spectroscopy on ionic targets. Their exceptional photon flux enables multiple photon absorptions within a single femtosecond pulse, which in t ...

Subcycle Extreme Nonlinearities in GaP Induced by an Ultrastrong Terahertz Field

Christoph Peter Hauri, Mostafa Shalaby

We report on the experimental observation of extreme laser spectral broadening and a change in optical transmission in gallium phosphite induced by 25 MV/cm terahertz (THz) single-cycle internal field. Such intense THz radiation leads to twofold transient ...

Modulated scattering technique in the terahertz domain enabled by current actuated vanadium dioxide switches

Juan Ramon Mosig, Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Anja Skrivervik, Michele Tamagnone, Wolfgang Amadeus Vitale, Santiago Capdevila Cascante

The modulated scattering technique is based on the use of reconfigurable electromagnetic scatterers, structures able to scatter and modulate an impinging electromagnetic field in function of a control signal. The modulated scattering technique is used in a ...

A laser stimulus at terahertz (THz) frequency is expected to offer superior control over magnetization dynamics compared to an optical pulse, where ultrafast demagnetization is mediated by heat deposition. As a THz field cycle occurs on a timescale similar ...

Having accurate and comprehensive photon diagnostics for the X-ray pulses delivered by free-electron laser (FEL) facilities is of utmost importance. Along with various parameters of the photon beam (such as photon energy, beam intensity, etc.), the pulse l ...

International Union of Crystallography (IUCr)2016

This thesis explores the applications of graphene for terahertz and far infrared optical components and antennas, with particular emphasis on tunable and non-reciprocal devices. Both terahertz technologies and graphene are emerging fields which hold many p ...

Comparison of Thermal Detector Arrays for Off-Axis THz Holography and Real-Time THz Imaging

Christoph Peter Hauri, Mostafa Shalaby

In terahertz (THz) materials science, imaging by scanning prevails when low power THz sources are used. However, the application of array detectors operating with high power THz sources is increasingly reported. We compare the imaging properties of four di ...

Intense THz source based on BNA organic crystal pumped at Ti:sapphire wavelength

Christoph Peter Hauri, Mostafa Shalaby

We report on high-energy terahertz pulses by optical rectification (OR) in the organic crystal N-benzyl-2-methyl-4-nitroaniline (BNA) directly pumped by a conventional Ti:sapphire amplifier. The simple scheme provides an optical-to-terahertz conversion eff ...

Tri-Band, Polarization-Independent Reflectarray at Terahertz Frequencies: Design, Fabrication, and Measurement

Juan Ramon Mosig, Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Anja Skrivervik, Clara-Fausta Moldovan, Julien Perruisseau-Carrier, Michele Tamagnone, Santiago Capdevila Cascante, Hamed Hasani, Pietro Maoddi

In this paper, two THz reflectarray surfaces have been designed and fabricated in order to deflect a plane wave with any polarization and with a specific incident angle to three different specific directions each at distinct three frequencies of 0.7, 1.0 a ...
