We report on the new optical gating technique used for the direct photoconductive detection of short pulses of terahertz radiation with the resolution up to 250 femtoseconds. The femtosecond optical laser pulse time delayed with respect to the THz pulse generated a large concentration of the electron hole pairs in the AlGaAs/InGaAs High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) drastically increasing the conductivity on the femtosecond scale and effectively shorting the source and drain. This optical gating quenched the response of the plasma waves launched by the THz pulse and allowed us to reproduce the waveform of the THz pulse by varying the time delay between the THz and quenching optical pulses. The results are in excellent agreement with the electro-optic effect measurements and with our hydrodynamic model that predicts the ultra-fast transistor plasmonic response at the time scale much shorter than the electron transit time, in full agreement with the measured data. |
