Abstract :
It has been observed that Terahertz (THz) wave was radiation from nanostructured metal gratings and metal films, which was illuminated by femtosecond laser pulse. The interaction of intense ultrashort femtosecond laser with plasma induced by metal targets can generated high power terahertz supercontinuum.
