12 Energy bandgap semiconductor should be photosensitive at the laser wavelength. THz pulse emitters: dark resistance, electron mobility, breakdown field, lifetime (shorter that the laser pulse repetition period). THz pulse detectors: electron trapping time, electron mobility, dark resistance. Optical mixers: electron and hole trapping times, dark resistance.
13 Advantages: * Mature laser technology ( nm); * LTG GaAs material sub-ps lifetimes, high resistivity, electron mobility, and with energy bandgap matching the laser photon energy. Disadvantages: * Complex optical pumping scheme; * Cannot be made much smaller and cheaper. Diode laser bar =808 nm Nd:YAG laser =1064 nm 2 harmonics =532 nm Ti:sapphire =800 nm
14 Advantages: 1 m or 1.55 m wavelength range solid-state or fiber laser are already commercially available; Directly pumped by diode laser bars; Compact, efficient, cheaper. Disadvantages: Semiconductor material similar to LTG GaAs but sensitive to longer wavelengths required; Longer wavelength means narrower energy bandgap and smaller dark resistivities.

Response time limited by the electron sweep-out through the collection layer. Bandwidths >1THz demonstrated. z/z 0 Open aperture Z-scan measurement. Large optical bleaching effect with relatively low saturation intensity. Possible applications in saturable absorbers for mode-locked lasers and all-optical switches.
37 Dilute GaBiAs due to its large electron mobility in a material with sub-picosecond carrier lifetimes is a prospective material for ultrafast optoelectronic application in the wavelength range of from 1 m to 1.5 m. THz time-domain-spectroscopy system with components manufactured from GaBiAs and activated by femtosecond pulses of compact 1-mm wavelength laser was demonstrated. This material shows great prospects in other ultrafast device applications, such as cw THz optical mixers, semiconducting saturable absorbers, and all-optical switches.
