Abstract

The emission generated by optical rectification due to the bulk electric quadrupole source term is demonstrated using 60- to 300-nm thick, c-axis oriented, twinned YBa₂Cu₃O_7-δ films deposited on 1-mm-thick MgO substrates using direct current off-axis sputtering. X-ray analysis of the films indicates that the c-axis of the film is well aligned with the normal surface and that the a and b axes are aligned with the MgO axes. The dependence of the terahertz emission on polarization and crystal orientation for YBa₂Cu₃O₇ at T = 300 K and excited at 1.5 eV are discussed.
