Abstract :
This paper presents a theoretical model for the
generation of terahertz radiation by cosh-Gaussian laser
beams of high intensity, which are capable of creating
relativistic–ponderomotive nonlinearity. We find the components
of the terahertz radiation for the relativistic laser
plasma interaction, i.e. beating of the two lasers of same
amplitude and different frequency in under dense plasma.
We plot the electric field profile of the emitted radiation
under the effect of lasers index. By creating a dip in peak of
the incident lasers’ fields, we can achieve multifocal terahertz
radiation.
