Abstract: | It is shown theoretically that ultrashort terahertz electromagnetic pulses can be generated in resonant systems containing a quantum semiconductor superlattice. This effect is due to the compression of radiation incident on a cavity as a result of ultrafast self-modulation of the cavity Q factor upon cyclic switching of the superlattice from the screening to the transparent state in a pump field. |
