Abstract

By introducing into the hot electron model, the authors have analyzed the THz radiation, which is excited by femtosecond laser from Large-Aperture InP photoconducting antennas biased electric field. Theoretic simulation shows that the departure of detected electric field from linear relationship with biased electric field comes from the high field effect of the transport process of free carriers.
