Resumo

The paper investigates a new type of terahertz radiation source based on a molecular crystal of rubidium hydrophthalate (RbAP) and a tunable metamaterial that performs the function of a filter. The high Q-factor of the vibrational response of the RbAP crystal lattice in the terahertz frequency range allows the generation of narrowband terahertz radiation simultaneously at several frequencies with high spectral brightness and peak power. The crystal is excited by single femtosecond laser pulses. Switching between the individual generated spectral lines is realized using a planar metamaterial, the absorption lines of which depend on the polarization of the radiation incident on it. The developed source allows for dynamic restructuring of the spectral line of radiation, which makes it more versatile and efficient compared to traditional narrow-band sources, such as, for example, quantum cascade lasers.
