摘要
Below, we theoretically study the generation of narrowband terahertz (THz) radiation by optical rectification in an artificial periodically poled lithium niobate (LN) crystal with a wide aperture. The latter is formed by placing a multi-slit phase mask in front of a conventional (single-domain) LN crystal. It is shown that the bandwidth of THz generation can be varied over a wide range by changing the linear size of the pump beam in the crystal. In addition, it is possible to tune up the generation frequency in the range of 0.4-0.8 THz by building a mask image in the crystal with different magnifications. According to estimates, the energy of narrowband THz pulses at a frequency of 0.5 THz in a stoichiometric LN crystal at a temperature of 100 K is about 265 mu J for a pump pulse energy of 220 mJ.
