摘要
Microscopic origin of THz emission from femtosecond laser excited narrow gap semiconductor surfaces is explained in terms of the photoelectron ballistic movement in non-parabolic and anisotropic conduction band. It has been shown that the azimuthal angle dependences of this emission are caused by the lateral photocurrent component resulting from that anisotropy. A strong THz radiation was observed from the lower symmetry crystal planes illuminated along their surface normal, which has allowed to demonstrate experimentally user-friendly line-of-sight THz emitters made from the bulk InAs and InSb, InAs pn diodes and p-i-n structures with GaInAs active layers.
