We report the recent measurement and analysis of the transmitted and pseudoreflected optically induced terahertz (THz) beams emitted from a semiconductor wafer under femtosecond laser illumination, where the static electric field is either parallel or perpendicular to the surface. In general, the amplitude of the transmitted THz field is different from that of pseudoreflected THz field, except at the Brewster angle.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
