The linear electrodynamic properties of graphene -- the frequency-dependent conductivity, the transmission spectra and collective excitations -- are briefly outlined. The non-linear frequency multiplication effects in graphene are studied,…
The induced terahertz response of semiconductor systems is investigated with a microscopic theory. In agreement with recent terahertz experiments, the developed theory fully explains the ultrafast build up of the plasmon resonance and the…
We present an experimental and computational study of the nonlinear optical response of conduction electrons to intense terahertz (THz) electric field. Our observations (saturable absorption and an amplitude-dependent group refractive…
There are a variety of nonlinear optical effects including higher harmonic generations, photovoltaic effects, and nonlinear Kerr rotations. They are realized by the strong light irradiation to materials that results in nonlinear…
Driving a double-quantum-well excitonic intersubband resonance with a terahertz (THz) electric field of frequency \omega_{THz} generated terahertz optical sidebands \omega=\omega_{THz}+\omega_{NIR} on a weak NIR probe. At high THz…
Irradiation of the strong light on the material leads to numerous non-linear effects that are essential to understand the physics of excited states of the system and for optoelectronics. Here, we study the non-linear thermoelectric effect…
Graphene exhibits extremely strong optical nonlinearity when a strong perpendicular magnetic field is applied, the response current shows strong field dependence even for moderate light intensity, and the perturbation theory fails. We…
We theoretically study the propagation of a Terahertz (THz) Gaussian beam through a thin sample of layered superconductor. We consider the beam axis and the superconducting layers to be perpendicular to the sample interface, while the…
Optical responses of graphene in the presence of intense circularly and linearly polarized terahertz fields are investigated based on the Floquet theory. We examine the energy spectrum and density of states. It is found that gaps open in…

A novel class of coherent nonlinear optical phenomena, involving induced transparency in quantum wells, is considered in the context of a particular application to sensitive long-wavelength infrared detection. It is shown that the strongest…
In a semiconductor illuminated by a strong terahertz field, optically excited electron-hole pairs can recombine to emit light in a broad frequency comb evenly spaced by twice the terahertz frequency. Such high-order terahertz sideband…
Measuring terahertz waveforms in terahertz spectroscopy often relies on electrooptic sampling employing a ZnTe crystal. Although the nonlinearities in such zincblende semiconductors induced by intense terahertz pulses have been studied at…
Graphene placed in a magnetic field possesses an extremely high mid/far-infrared optical nonlinearity originating from its unusual band structure and selection rules for the optical transitions near the Dirac point. Here we study the linear…
We use an open-aperture Z-scan technique to show how intense few-cycle terahertz pulses can experience a nonlinear bleaching of absorption in an n-doped semiconductor due to terahertz-electric-field-driven intervalley scattering of…
Exploration of optical non-linear response of graphene predominantly relies on ultra-short time domain measurements. Here we propose an alternate technique that uses frequency modulated continuous wavefront optical fields, thereby probing…
