Abstract :
We report a new approach to the terahertz frequency comb spectroscopy (TFCS) based on nonlinear mixing of a photonically generated terahertz pulse train with a continuous wave signal from an electronic synthesizer. Unlike the standard TFCS technique, this approach does not require a complex double laser system. It still retains the advantages of TFCS - high spectral resolution and wide bandwidth.
