Cherenkov Radiation from Femtosecond Optical Pulses in Electro-Optic Media
Abstract
The propagation of femtosecond-duration optical pulses in electro-optic materials is observed to produce a Cherenkov cone of pulsed far-infrared radiation in the terahertz spectral range. Coherent detection of the electric field of this far-infrared pulse by electro-optic sampling shows it to have a duration of approximately one cycle and an amplitude of 10 V/cm making it a potentially attractive source for transient far-infrared spectroscopy.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
