Abstract

The invention discloses a terahertz emission source based on transition metal chalcogenide and an excitation method. The terahertz emission source comprises a transition metal chalcogenide film and pumping light source. The terahertz emission source has the advantages that fixed incoming excitation pulses are used, the planar central axis of the transition metal chalcogenide film is rotated, and pumping light source laser comes in at 0-90 degrees and excite the surface of the transition metal chalcogenide film to radiate terahertz waves; the transition metal chalcogenide film is used as the terahertz emission source, so that the generated terahertz emission source is high in radiation efficiency; in addition, due to the fact that the film is good in heat conductivity, stable in lattice structure and adjustable in energy band gap, device service life and wide application range are guaranteed, and a two-dimensional terahertz emission source type gap is filled up; by using the transitionmetal chalcogenide film as the terahertz emission source, elliptical polarization terahertz waves can be generated, and the elliptical polarization terahertz waves is significant in molecular chirality spectrum, substance circular dichroism spectrum, polarization imaging and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of terahertz band devices, and in particular relates to a transition metal chalcogenide-based terahertz emission source and an excitation method. Background technique [0002] Terahertz waves generally refer to electromagnetic waves ranging from 0.1 THz to 10 THz, with wavelengths ranging from 30 μm to 3 mm. Overlapping between microwave and far-infrared, it is in the transition zone from electronics to photonics. It has excellent properties such as low photon energy, non-polar substance penetration and molecular fingerprint spectrum. It is used in biomedicine, safety monitoring, and material identification. Fields have very large potential value. In the early days, due to the lack of efficient terahertz sources, high-sensitivity detectors and terahertz-related functional devices, the development of terahertz technology was hindered, which was once called "terahertz gap". With the development and maturity ...
