Frequency multiplication of terahertz signals on a solid state platform is highly sought-after for the next generation of high-speed electronics and the creation of frequency combs. Solutions to efficiently generate extreme harmonics (up to the 31 st harmonic and beyond) of a terahertz signal with modest input intensities, however, remain elusive. Using fully nonperturbative simulations and complementary analytical theory, we show that 3D Dirac semimetals (DSMs) have enormous potential as compact sources of extreme terahertz harmonics, achieving energy conversion efficiencies beyond 10 −5 at the 31 st harmonic with input intensities on the order of 10 MW/cm 2 , over 10 5 times lower than in conventional THz high harmonic generation systems. Our theory also reveals a fundamental feature in the nonlinear optics of 3D DSMs: a distinctive regime where higher-order optical nonlinearity vanishes, arising as a direct result of the extra dimensionality in 3D DSMs compared to 2D DSMs. Our findings should pave the way to the development of efficient platforms for high-frequency terahertz light sources and optoelectronics based on 3D DSMs.
