Abstract

We present the results of terahertz generation studies under excitation via femtosecond lasers pulses epitaxial films of InAs, which were synthesized on semi-insulating and highly doped GaAs substrates. It is shown that a terahertz emitter based on epitaxial InAs film grown on a heavily doped GaAs n-type substrate, has the same terahertz generation efficiency as the InAs-film emitter grown on a semi-isolating GaAs substrate, but it has a significantly better spectral resolution, which is mainly determined by the parameters of the optical delay line and the femtosecond laser’s stability.
