Abstract
In this work we propose a compact, easily tunable terahertz burst generation system based on the mixing of two linearly chirped optical pulses in the Michelson interferometer. The use of linearly chirped optical pulses ejected straight from the fiber laser enabled us to avoid bulky external optical pulse stretching schemes. Even for non-compensated third and higher order dispersion that is taking place in the optical fiber terahertz bursts of relatively narrow bandwidth of 55 GHz were registered. The system operation range determined from the power measurements reached 2 THz.
