N2 - A growing number of applications in the THz field require more power, efficiency, affordability, and reliability from time- and frequency-domains sources alike. We have developed efficient phoconductive switches and photomixers that can be driven by fiber mode-locked and cw-diode lasers, respectively. The average power of the PC switches is approaching 1 mW.
