Particle-in-cell simulation for frequency up-conversion of microwave to terahertz radiation by a relativistic hollow ionization front
The interaction of an electromagnetic wave with a relativistic ionization front with frequency up-conversion has been demonstrated by the particle-in-cell (PIC) method. In the PIC simulation, the plasma ionization front is formed by using an electron beam ionizing the background gas. The PIC results...
