Terahertz (THz) radiation with frequencies between 100 GHz and 30 THz has numerous applications in basic science, materials characterization, imaging, sensor technologies, and telecommunications. Recent progress in THz generation has provided ultrashort THz pulses with electric field amplitudes of up to several megavolts/cm. This development has opened the research field of nonlinear THz spectroscopy in which strong light-matter interactions are exploited to induce quantum excitations and/or charge transport and follow their nonequilibrium dynamics in time-resolved experiments. This book introduces the basic concepts of light-matter interactions and nonlinear optics, discusses methods of THz generation and nonlinear THz spectroscopy, and presents prototypical experimental and theoretical results in condensed matter physics and chemistry. Each chapter includes an overview of recent literature. Part of IPEM- IOP Series in Emerging Technologies in Optics and Photonics. Professional and scholarly. Also available in print. Mode of access: World Wide Web. System requirements: Adobe Acrobat Reader, EPUB reader, or Kindle reader. Thomas Elsaesser is a director emeritus at the Max-Born-Institute, Berlin, Germany, and a retired full professor for experimental physics at Humboldt University, Berlin. His research has focused on ultrafast phenomena in condensed matter, including (bio)molecular systems, inorganic solids, and nanostructures. Klaus Reimann was from 1999 to 2024 a scientist at the Max-Born-Institute, Berlin, Germany, in the field of ultrafast mid-infrared and THz spectroscopy. Before this he worked in the field of semiconductors under high pressures. Michael Woerner is a department head at the Max-Born-Institute, Berlin, Germany, and holds a lecturer qualification (Habilitation) in physics at Humboldt University, Berlin. His research focuses on ultrafast phenomena in solids and nanostructures. Title from PDF title page (viewed on October 3, 2024).
