Abstract

We demonstrate emission of terahertz pulses from a BiVO₄/Au thin film interface, illuminated with femtosecond laser pulses. Based on the experimental observations, we propose that the most likely cause of the THz emission is the Photo-Dember effect caused by the standing wave intensity distribution formed at the BiVO₄/Au interfaces. © 2015, The Author(s).
