Abstract

We investigate theoretically the generation of coherent narrow-band terahertz (THz) radiation with multifrequency modes in an optical superlattice produced by quasiperiodically poled ferroelectric crystal. The superlattice consists of two building blocks A and B, in which each containing a pair of antiparallel 180° ferroelectric domains, arranged as a Fibonacci sequence. Second-order nonlinear optical rectification of femtosecond pulses gives rise to a THz wave form whose multifrequency modes are determined by the quasiperiodic structure properties. The relationship between multifrequency modes terahertz generation and Fibonacci structure parameters is also analyzed and studied.
