Generation of Elliptically Polarized Terahertz Waves from Laser-Induced Plasma with Double Helix Electrodes

Figure 1 (A) Experimental setup for generating elliptically polarized THz Waves from laser-induced plasma with double helix electrodes, (A) Left panel (EXP): Measured far-field THz waves in x (upper) and y (lower) directions at various electrode positions from pairs of (a) right-handed, (b) left-handed helical, and © linear electrodes. Right panel (SIM): The calculated far-field THz waves in x and y directions at various electrode positions from (d) right-handed, (e) left-handed helical, and (f) linear electrodes are also shown for comparison. EXP: experimental results. SIM: simulation results.
