摘要
We demonstrate that the average output power of the terahertz pulses generated by difference-frequency generation in stacked GaAs wafers is scaled up by a factor of 160. Such power scaling is made possible by achieving first-order quasiphase matching for the efficient terahertz conversion in stacked 590 mu m thick (110) GaAs wafers using two CO2 laser pulses. The highest average output power is measured to be 29.8 mu W by stacking ten wafers.
