“…Many possible applications of THz pulses have been proposed [5][6][7][8][9][10][11] and demonstrated [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] , which need the application of THz pulses with significantly above 1 MV/cm peak electric field strength or would strongly benefit from it. These applications include enhancement of both the high-harmonic generation efficiency [5] and the cut-off frequency [6] , orientation of molecules [12,13] , electron [9,10,15,19] and proton [8] acceleration or other manipulation [7,17,18] , and generation of very special carrier-envelope stable attosecond pulses [11] . In addition to the above indicated megavolts (MV)/cm range of electric field, some of the previously mentioned applications also require well controllable single-or few-cycle THz pulses.…”
