We demonstrate a strong and anisotropic photomixing effect in an electronic system whose energy-momentum dispersion is parabolic in the ? direction and linear in the ? direction, such as a TiO 2 /VO 2 multilayered structure. The third-order photoresponses along the linear and parabolic directions have been analyzed and determined quantitatively. We have found a remarkable tunability of the mixing efficiency along the parabolic direction by a small electric field in the linear direction, up to two orders of magnitude. In the terahertz (THz) regime, the third-order response is comparable to the linear response under an applied field of 10 3-10 4 V/cm. Additionally, the nonlinear response persists at room temperature. The results may have applications where different current responses are required along different directions in the THz regime.

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.
