Abstract

Optical rectification is a prominent method to generate a broadband terahertz pulse. It is known that generation is possible at the resonance condition of Zakharov-Benney. To increase generation efficiency, in particular, optical component shortening is applied. Thus, while studying this process analytically and modeling it numerically one should consider non-zero third order dispersion. The case is especially interesting when the carrier frequency of the initial optical radiation is situated near zero value of the second-order dispersion. In this work, using numerical simulation, we study the influence of third-order dispersion on terahertz generation efficiency.
