Abstract:
The idea of terahertz-time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) is to exploit a single cycle, spectrally broad THz radiation pulse to gain insight into the response of matter. Photoconductive devices and nonlinear crystals are utilized in both the generation as well as the coherent detection of THz radiation. The relatively high cost and the complexity of commonly used titanium-sapphire lasers hinder a more widespread use of pulsed THz systems for commercial applications. Er-doped femtosecond fiber lasers operating at 1.55 μm could offer a viable alternative. In this thesis nonlinear crystals and pho

This doctoral dissertation focuses on the nonlinear optical response of water vapour as well as some solids at terahertz (THz) frequencies. In this study, the propagation of broadband single-cycle THz pulses through a medium with the third-order nonlinear optical response is theoretically investigated. Also, a technique to measure the nonlinear response of transparent materials based on the time-domain THz spectroscopy is developed, which provides frequency dispersion curves of the nonlinear Kerr coefficient (n₂). A numerical model is used to simulate the THz pulse propagation. This model tak

Abstract:
The main purpose of this dissertation to investigate photophysical properties, third order nonlinearity and free carrier absorption and refraction in organic materials and semiconductors. Special emphasis of this dissertation is on characterization techniques of molecules with enhanced intersystem crossing rate and study of different approaches of increasing triplet quantum yield in organic molecules. Both linear and nonlinear characterization methods are described. Linear spectroscopic characterization includes absorption, fluorescence, quantum yield, anisotropy, and singlet-oxygen generati

Abstract:
L'évolution des technologies liées aux semi-conducteurs a amené à l'étude de la cohérence des Bits Quantiques (Qbits) dans l'objectif de réduction de la taille des composants. A l'aide de la spectroscopie cohérente non-linéaire, j'ai pu étudier les propriétés de cohérences des excitons confinés dans des boites quantiques (BQ), eux-même intégrées dans différentes nano-structures. L'intérêt des nano-structures est d'augmenter le ratio signal-sur-bruit, indispensable dans notre expérience. L'utilisation des nano-structures est aussi indispensable dans l'objectif de la mise en place d'un couplage

Abstract:
This thesis describes the experimental implementation of novel intersecting cavity terahertz optical parametric oscillators based on bulk and periodically-poled magnesium oxide-doped lithium niobate. Both collinear and non-collinear phase-matching geometries have been demonstrated and injection-seeding has been implemented in devices using periodically-poled material to reduce threshold and increase the down-conversion efficiency. A comprehensive characterisation of the original intracavity terahertz OPO was undertaken, which revealed the parameters having the greatest impact on OPO efficiency
