摘要
Optical pump-terahertz probe spectroscopy is employed to investigate the optical characteristics of silicon wafer. The wafer surface undergoes a phase transition from insulator to metal for terahertz wave with increasing pump fluence. The real part of the pump-induced conductivity shows strong frequency dependence, which can be well described with Drude-Smith model. Our results also demonstrate that the photoexcited Si layer acts as a broadband terahertz pulse antireflection coating with proper pump fluence. In addition, it is observed that the terahertz pulse apparently arrives at the detector earlier when silicon is optically excited. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
