Extremely-Tunable Terahertz Emission: Coherent Population Flopping in a DC-Biased Quantum Well

S. Hughes and D.S. Citrin

Terahertz (THz) light-emitters are a welcome addition to the laser engineer's palette since they offer a marriage of optics and high-speed electronics. In the field of semiconductor nanostructures, the exploration of THz generation schemes and THz-induced carrier dynamics provides a useful means to study charge-carrier transport.
