We demonstrate generation of few-cycle THz pulses through optical rectification in organic DAST crystals at telecommunication wavelength (1550 nm). An extremely high conversion efficiency is achieved through velocity-matching and the materialpsilas large nonlinear optical susceptibility.

Ultrashort vacuum ultraviolet pulses at 161 nm with energies above 1 muJ were generated by chirped-pulse four-wave difference-frequency mixing in argon-filled aluminum-coated hollow waveguide. The pulses were compressed to 140-fs pulse duration by material dispersion.
