The realization of free-electron radiation in the terahertz band with both compact device size and tunability is challenging. Prof. Fang Liu’s group realize terahertz Cherenkov radiation using a free electron beam passing on graphene-based hyperbolic metamaterial, and an on-chip integrated terahertz source that can be continuously tuned from 3.2 to 14 THz. This work not only experimentally realizes terahertz Cherenkov radiation but also achieves device integration and wide-range tunability, and provides a pathway toward miniaturized free electron terahertz sources.
