The orientation and ellipticity of terahertz (THz) polarization generated by two-color strong field not only cast light on underlying mechanisms of laser-matter interaction, but also play an important role for various applications. We…
A novel scheme for generating powerful terahertz (THz) radiation based on laser-solid interactions is proposed. When a $p$-polarized femtosecond laser impinges obliquely on a plane solid target and the target partially blocks the laser…
Terahertz (THz) emissions from fast electron and ion currents driven in relativistic, femtosecond laser-foil interactions are examined theoretically. We first consider the radiation from the energetic electrons exiting the backside of the…
In complex oxides, the electrons under the influence of competing energetics are the cornerstone of coexistence (or phase-separation) of two or more electronic/magnetic phases in same structural configuration. Probing of growth and…
The attoclock is a powerful tool for probing ultrafast electron dynamics with attosecond precision.Here, we demonstrate an all-optical terahertz (THz) attoclock that reconstructs photoionization dynamics by detecting the THz radiation…
We report a plasma-based strong THz source generated by using intense femtosecond laser pulses to irradiate solid targets at relativistic intensity >10^18W/cm2. Energies up to 50 microJ/sr per THz pulse is observed in the specular direction…
Microscopic understanding of low-frequency molecular motions in liquids has been a longstanding goal in soft-matter science. So far, such low-frequency motions have mostly been accessed indirectly by off-resonant optical pulses. A more…
A laser pulse composed of a fundamental and properly phased second harmonic exhibits an asymmetric electric field that can drive a time-dependent current of photoionized electrons. The current produces an ultrashort burst of terahertz (THz)…
We study the influence of the polarization states of femtosecond two-color pulses ionizing gases on the emitted terahertz radiation. A local-current model and plane-wave evaluations justify the previously-reported impact on the THz energy…
Numerical simulations of laser-plasma interactions demonstrate the generation of axially polarized electromagnetic pulses (EMPs) that radiate away energy with a characteristic frequency determined by the plasma frequency, in the THz range…
When a relativistic, femtosecond laser pulse enters a waveguide, the pulse energy is coupled into waveguide optical modes. The longitudinal laser field effectively accelerates electrons along the axis of the channel, while the asymmetric…
Terahertz (THz) polarization detection provides critical insights into material properties but faces a fundamental constraint upon miniaturization: subwavelength metallic electrodes induce strong localization and distortion of the incident…
The full three-dimensional photoelectron momentum distributions of argon are measured in intense near-circularly polarized laser fields. We observed that the transverse momentum distribution of ejected electrons by 410-nm near-circularly…
We study the ionization dynamics of oriented HeH$^+$ in strong linearly-polarized laser fields by numerically solving the time-dependent Schr\"{o}dinger equation. The calculated photoelectron momentum distributions for parallel orientation…
The excitation of THz radiation by the interaction of an ultra short laser pulse with the modes of a miniature corrugated plasma waveguide is considered. The axially corrugated waveguide supports the electromagnetic (EM) modes with…
We propose and demonstrate a Terahertz (THz) oscilloscope for recording time information of an ultrashort electron beam. By injecting a laser-driven THz pulse with circular polarization into a dielectric tube, the electron beam is swept…
We study the generation of terahertz radiation from atoms and molecules driven by an ultrashort fundamental laser and its second harmonic field by solving time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation (TDSE). The comparisons between one-, two-, and…
A Terahertz (THz) laser with strong strength could excite more than one phonons and induce a transient lattice distortion termed as nonlinear phononics. This process allows dynamic control of various physical properties, including…
Ultrafast electron microscopy provides a movie-like access to structural dynamics of materials in space and time, but fundamental atomic motions or electron dynamics are, so far, too quick to be resolved. Here we report the all-optical…
The role of Coulomb focusing in above-threshold ionization in an elliptically polarized mid-infrared strong laser field is investigated within a semiclassical model incorporating tunneling and Coulomb field effects. It is shown that Coulomb…
