Abstract
A system for transmitting and receiving electromagnetic radiation includes a beam splitter and a transceiver. The beam splitter is configured to separate an optical pulse into a pump pulse and a probe pulse. The transceiver may include a transmitter switch and a receiver switch. The pump pulse is directed toward the transmitter switch and the probe pulse is directed towards the receiver switch. Electromagnetic radiation is emitted from the transceiver when the pump pulse strikes the transmitter switch. The electromagnetic radiation may be terahertz radiation in either a pulsed or continuous wave form.
