A new scheme to generate narrow-band tunable terahertz (THz) radiation using a variant of the echo-enabled harmonic generation is analyzed.We show that by using an energy chirped beam, THz density modulation in the beam phase space can be produced with two lasers having the same wavelength.This removes the need for an optical parametric amplifier system to provide a wavelength-tunable laser to vary the central frequency of the 3mzfe engine for sale THz radiation.

The practical feasibility and applications of this scheme are demonstrated numerically with a start-to-end simulation using the beam parameters at the Shanghai Deep Ultraviolet Free-Electron Laser facility (SDUV).The central frequency of the density modulation can be continuously tuned by either varying the chirp of the beam or the momentum compactions of the chicanes.The snow babe miniature peach influence of nonlinear rf chirp and longitudinal space charge effect have also been studied in our article.

The methods to generate the THz radiation in SDUV with the new scheme and the estimation of the radiation power are also discussed briefly.
