Abstract
THz liquid photonics is a new research frontier in laser-matter interaction community. We have successfully demonstrated THz wave generation from ionized liquids, including from liquid water, liquid nitrogen, and liquid gallium. Preferable to general targets, a flowing liquid line provides a fresh area for each excitation pulse, so the chaos and debris caused by the previous pulse will not influence the next one. This makes it possible of using a kHz repetition rate laser for excitation. THz wave generation from ionized liquids presents photoionization processes that are different from those in gases.
