The intensity and the phase shift spectra of the reflected THz light were investigated by THz time-domain spectroscopy with broadband electro-optic sampling in a thin GaP crystal. The frequency up-shift factor, which is a ratio of averaged frequencies from after to before Doppler reflection, was measured to be Gamma = 2.02 with a pump energy density of 3.3 μJ/mm2 at a wavelength of 800 nm. The frequency up-shift increased as optical pump energy density increased. The frequency up-shift was reproduced by evaluating the moving plasma front whose spatial carrier density distribution depended on the pump energy density.}, pages = {235201-1--235201-9}, title = {Relativistic Doppler reflection of terahertz light from a moving plasma front in an optically pumped Si wafer}, volume = {102}, year = {2020} }
