摘要
The results of a theoretical study of the formation of a supercontinuum produced due to the interaction of femtosecond laser pulses with an isotropic nonlinear medium are presented. The system of nonlinear Maxwell's equations was numerically integrated in time by the finite-difference method. The interaction of mutually orthogonal linearly-polarised 1.98-mu m, 30-fs, 30-nJ pulses propagating along the normal to the < 110 > plane in a I-mm-long GaAs crystal was considered. In the nonlinear part of the polarisation medium, the inertialless second-order nonlinear susceptibility was taken into account. The formation process of a terahertz pulse obtained due to the supercontinuum filtration was studied.
