A novel Salisbury screen absorber (SSA) based on a 4-,-dimethylamino-4'-'-methyl-stilbazolium tosylate (DAST) crystalline film was designed and fabricated. Different from the conventional SSA, an insulating organic DAST film replaced the normally highly conductive top surface metal layer. The absorption spectra and the structure of this SSA were optimized with a transmission line model to correspond to the DAST absorption peak at 1.1 THz, whose results were further verified by numerical simulations. If the thickness of the DAST film is 4 μm, a nearly perfect terahertz (THz) absorption is possible with this strategy, whereas the absorption of a bare 4 μm thick DAST film would be 4 times lower. The design allows the terahertz response of this DAST system to be tuned by adjusting either the thickness of the DAST film or the spacer, both of which remain in deep sub-wavelength to broaden the range of applications.

In the process of terahertz (THz) wave generation via optical rectification of infrared femtosecond pulses in a non-linear optical crystal, the power of terahertz wave is directly proportional to the square of the optical pump power. Therefore, high power terahertz wave can be generated using a high power femtosecond laser provided that the crystal has both high laser induced damage threshold and optical non-linear coefficient. However, a significant amount of pump power is lost in this process due to the Fresnel's reflection at the air-crystal boundary.

Hybrid thin films of crystalline CuSCN and 4-(,-dimethylamino)-4'-('-methyl)stilbazolium (DAS) in three distinctively different nanostructures were obtained by electrochemical self-assembly from a single pot containing all the chemical ingredients. Their optical properties for UV-vis-NIR absorption, photoluminescence (PL), and PL excitation spectra were examined between 77 and 298 K, in comparison with solution and solid powder of DAS tosylate (DAST). Unlike all other dyes we tested before, PL of DAS was not quenched but rather enhanced when hybridized with CuSCN.

4-N,N-dimethylamino-4'-N'-methyl-stilbazolium tosylate (DAST) is an important optical material, but its poor conductivity limits applications in devices. To tackle this problem, we designed, prepared, and systematically investigated novel binary composite films that are composed of two-dimensional (2D) DAST and 2D graphene. Results indicate that both electrical and optical properties of DAST can be significantly improved by graphene addition.
