  • Abstract
    An achromatically injection-seeded terahertz-wave parametric generator was constructed with MgO:LiNbO3 crystals and a tunable seeder using a stationary dispersion-compensated optical arrangement. We obtained smooth tuning over the 0.6∼2.6 THz by adjusting the seeder wavelength alone.
