Abstract
Dynamic optical behavior of CeO2 thin film has been investigated using Terahertz spectroscopy at room temperature by exciting with different amplitude pulses. The CeO2 thin films have been deposited on Si (100) substrate by RF magnetron sputtering technique. It has been observed that the optical density increases at 0.75 THz on the incident of pulse ≥100 kV/cm indicating that it is possible to induce extremely large amplitude motions in the harmonic potential of the material by direct excitation of CeO2 vibrations with intense THz pulse. This study further shows that it is possible to control the large amplitude motions in the materials using different high power THz pulses, and in turn can control the optical properties, establishing the nonlinear spectroscopy technique for such studies.
