Abstract
Terahertz radiation generation systems and methods are implemented using a variety of methods and devices. According to an example embodiment of the present invention, method for generating terahertz radiation is implemented where the wavelength of an optical pulse is controlled, and where the wavelength is controlled as a function of the group velocity dispersion in a nonlinear crystal. The optical pulse is then directed through consecutively-inverted parallel domains in the nonlinear crystal.
