Abstract Enhanced terahertz wave generation via a Stokes cascade process has been demonstrated using picosecond pulse pumped terahertz parametric generation at 1 kHz repetition rate. Clear cascade saturation of terahertz output was observed, and the corresponding cascade-Stokes spectra were analyzed. The maximum terahertz wave average power was 22 μW under a pump power of 30 W, whereas the maximum power conversion efficiency was 8$\times10^{-7}$ under a pump power of 21 W. The THz power fluctuation was measured to be about 1% in 20 min. This THz parametric source with a relatively stable output is suitable for a variety of practical applications.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
