Through varying the phase matching angle, the tunable THzwave output from 0.79 THz to 2.84 THz is realized. The maximum THz-wave output was 193.2 n J/pulse at 1.84 THz as the pump power density was 212.5 MW/cm2, corresponding to the energy conversion efficiency of 2.42Х10-6 and the photon conversion efficiency of about 0.037%. When the pump power density changed from 123 MW/cm^2 to 148 MW/cm^2 and 164 MW/cm^2, the maximum output of the THz-wave moved to the high frequency band. We give a reasonable explanation for this phenomenon.展开更多
