Wavelength scaling of THz emissions by two-color filaments in air

Résumé

Producing terahertz (THz) radiation by ultrashort laser pulses has become an active field of research because of its promising applications in, e.g., spectroscopy and medical imaging [1]. Efficient THz emitters can be obtained by focusing into air a two-color femtosecond light pulse, composed of fundamental (FH) and second (SH) harmonics, in order to create a plasma channel that acts as a frequency converter [2]. Recent studies [3,4] showed that increasing the pump wavelength enhances the THz energy. However, there is no consensus on the gain factors expected when pushing the FH wavelength, λ 0 , from the near-IR to the mid-IR range. Clerici et al. [3] reported THz energy yields scaling like λ 2 0 in the range 0.8–1.8 μm. By contrast, according to the local-current model [2,4], the largest THz energy attained by two colors with π/2 relative phase should follow a scaling in λ 2 0 only.
