Call for Papers
In the recent years, terahertz (THz) spectroscopy has gained widespread applicability in solid state physics. Spanning the frequency range between 0.25 and 25 THz, corresponding to the far-infrared photon energy range of 1-100 meV, THz radiation interacts strongly with systems that have characteristic lifetimes in the picosecond range and energetic transitions in the meV range. THz spectroscopy has been successfully applied to investigating transient photoconductivity in a variety of semiconductor materials and molecular solids, as well as properties of phonons, plasmons, excitons and other collective excitations in crystalline solids. It has also proven to be a powerful experimental tool for characterizing superconductor materials, as it probes directly, and with the high spectral resolution, the electrodynamics of the superconducting state. Moreover, a probing length scale of tens of nanometers makes THz spectroscopy an ideal tool to investigate local conductivity and ultrafast carrier dynamics in nanostructured materials, such as nanocrystals, nanowires, and nanotubes. The aim of this special issue is to provide an overview of the most recent developments in the field of THz spectroscopy of crystalline as well as amorphous solids and nanostructures. We invite researchers in the field to share their results in the areas of THz spectroscopy and applications. Potential topic include, but are not limited to:
- Transient photoconductivity of semiconductors and semiconductor nanostructures studied by time-resolved THz spectroscopy
- THz spectroscopy of excitons, plasmons and other collective excitations in materials
- Nonlinear Terahertz Spectroscopy
- Modeling of transient conductivity of semiconductors and semiconductor nanostructures in THz frequency range
- THz spectroscopy of superconductors
