Coherent THz Transition Radiation

Generation, Characterization, and Applications

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book is intended especially for students and
researchers working with generation, interpretation
and applications of THz transition radiation. It
concentrates in much detail on theoretical and
experimental discussions of coherent THz femtosecond
transition radiation from ultrashort electron pulses
and will serve as a guide for experimental design to
generate and characterize such radiation with
detailed interpretations. Experimental results of
non-destructive diffraction radiation are also
discussed in much detail. In one of its applications,
coherent transition radiation is being used for
longitudinal beam diagnostics, especially bunch
length measurement with femtosecond pulse resolution.
Complete performance, analyses and limitations of
bunch length measurements via the autocorrelation
technique will be presented in this book. The feature
of femtosecond THz pulse is exploited in an example
application to material science measuring the complex
dielectric constant of materials with discussion of
its experimental setup and results. The possibility
to create stimulated transition radiation will be
introduced with experimental results to demonstrate
its feasibility.
