Abstract

The spectral distribution of the conical terahertz emission from a femtosecond laser filament in air is measured with a bolometric detector and a set of filters, confirming that the main part of the emission lies between 0.5 and 3THz. The efficiency of this terahertz emission is compared with that obtained in air via four wave mixing of femtosecond laser pulses at ω and 2ω in the presence of a plasma.
