Abstract :
We investigated terahertz (THz) emission properties of the electric-optic (EO) side-chain polymer films. We evaluated the THz electric field intensity from the EO polymer film by comparing the results with that of a ZnTe crystal. We also characterized the material properties of the EO polymer with respect to the THz generation.
