Ultrafast broadband mid-infrared pump, terahertz probe spectroscopy

We report a novel ultrafast optical system capable of directly pumping low energy excitations in complex materials and probing the photoinduced changes in their properties with terahertz pulses, benchmarked through mid-infrared-pump, THz-probe measurements on InSb.
