Description

We have measured the spectrum of intense electromagnetic wave radiated from Ti-plasma by using a Martin-Puplett interferometer. We found that the spectrum of observed radiation distributes around 0.2 THz and extends up to 0.5 THz. The pulse duration of the terahertz wave would estimate to 2 ps with the measured spectrum for a transform limited pulse. (author)
