Lattice-matched GaInAs p-i-n diodes of different i-region thicknesses have been MBE grown on n-type InP (100) and (111) crystallographic orientation substrates. It has been found that terahertz emission from such structures when illuminated with femtosecond laser pulses can be more efficient than that from the known to date best surface terahertz emitter (111) p-InAs. The explanation of the terahertz generation mechanism from p-i-n diodes is based on ultrafast photocurrent effects. Anisotropic transient photocurrents causing the 3ϕ azimuthal angle dependence are observed in the sample on (111) substrate. These p-i-n structures allow covering a technologically important 1.55 μm range and may provide controllability and compactness of a THzTDS system when biased with an external voltage source.

Through an ansatz specifying the azimuthal-angle dependence of the solution, the static field equation for vortex of the Faddeev model is converted to an algebraic ordinary differential equation. An approximate analytic expression of the vortex solution is explored so that the energy per unit vortex length becomes as small as possible. It is observed that the minimum energy of vortex is approximately proportional to the integer which specifies the solution.

Electromagnetic radiation of 1 - 10 THz range is observed at room temperature in a structure with a point contact between a ferromagnetic rod and a thin ferromagnetic film under electric current of high enough density. The radiation is due to nonequilibrium spin injection between the components of the structure. By estimates, the injection can lead to inverted population of the spin subbands. The radiation power exceeds by orders of magnitude the thermal background (with the Joule heating taking into account) and follows the current without inertia. Efficiency of the oscillator depends strongly on the material used and quantum efficiency may exceed the unity. It means the stimulated radiation processes play an important role.
