摘要
The terahertz (THz) generation efficiency in the Cherenkov optical rectification scheme can be improved significantly if the silicon adaptor, mounted at the lateral surface of a nonlinear crystal, has a convex output surface with proper geometry. We demonstrate and compare with the results of direct experiments a method for theoretically modeling the angular distributions of the spectral power of THz radiation in the case of different Si adaptors, constructed by mounting plano-spherical lenses on a conventional flat Si prism. The applied method of theoretical modeling shows its usefulness in choosing the best Si adapter geometry.
