Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 044801 (2007) [4 pages]Terahertz Radiation from a Nonlinear Slab Traversed by an Optical PulseReceived 28 June 2006; published 24 January 2007 We report on the theoretical calculations considering collinear electromagnetic radiation at the propagation of an optical pulse through a slab of nonlinear material. Calculated waveforms of the radiated field fit well to the experimental dependencies showing the remarkable similarities between the radiation at nonlinear wave interaction and the radiation phenomena of moving external charges, similarly to discussed in the Tamm Problem and transition radiation of moving external charges. © 2007 The American Physical Society URL:
