Abstract :
We report nonlinear terahertz effects in monolayer graphene using intense few-cycle THz pulses. We observe enhancement in the THz transmission through graphene when we increase the THz electric field. Following photo-excitation, we observed reduction in the THz transmission. This photo-induced reduction in the THz transmission is found to decrease when we increase the THz electric field.
