DSTMS Organic Crystal
4-N,N-dimethylamino-4’-N’-methyl-stilbazolium 2,4,6-trimethylbenzenesulfonate
• THz generator and detector
• Multi-THz generator
• Second harmonic generator
Applications
Main Advantages
Superior performance to classical THz generator (ZnTe and Lithium Niobate) from Ti:Sa 800 nm lasers
Example Output
Comparison With Sister DAST Crystal
• DSTMS and DAST have similar optical properties
• DSTMS optical to THz energy efficiency is slightly higher than DAST
• DAST could show higher peak electric field because of the broader spectrum than DSTMS
• DAST has higher damage threshold than DSTMS
Laser Requirements
DSTMS operates with all conventional types of lasers
• Telecomm fiber
• OPA
• OPCPA
Expected Output
• Input laser: 34 mJ OPA near-infrared
• Output THz: 85 MV/cm
Physical Properties
State of the Art: Intense Nonlinear Terahertz Spectroscopy
