8. Large instruments

Large-scale THz generation instruments (synchrotrons , free electron lasers (FEL) ) exploit the fact that an accelerating electric charge emits electromagnetic radiation. The intense electron current within these gas pedals, and the very strong acceleration of the charges, lead to very high brilliance of the THz beams produced, compared with those from other sources. Typically, a synchrotron delivers a brightness, per unit...
