Experimental and Numerical Investigations into Terahertz Time-Domain Spectroscopy

This Master's thesis presents numerical and experimental results that benchmark a state-of-the-art terahertz time-domain spectrometer. We begin by describing the theory behind the nonlinear optical mechanisms through which we generate and detect short pulses of THz radiation. Based on a coheren...
