  • Abstract
    We characterise a set of Lateral Photo Dember (LPD) terahertz emitters fabricated on annealed low temperature grown (LTG) GaAs, unannealed LTG-GaAs and SI-GaAs substrates. Our results show that unannealed LTG-GaAs is the most efficient LPD emitter of this set due to a higher saturation fluence.
