Dynamically tunable mirrors for THz free electron laser applications

We have constructed and tested 1D-photonic crystal (PhC) mirrors with tunable reflectivity to be used as efficient, broadband outcouplers for THz free electron lasers (FELs). The test mirrors cover a spectral range between 0.5 and 1.5 THz. They are assembled by stacking up quarter-wave dielectric la...
