Researchers proposed a new method of exciting electrons in the low-temperature system of electrons floating on a liquid helium surface by the mixed effect of THz and GHz electromagnetic waves, which can be experimentally detected using the image-charge approach.
We propose a frequency-mixed effect of terahertz (THz) and gigahertz (GHz) electromagnetic waves in the cryogenic system of electrons floating on liquid helium surface. The THz wave is near-resonant with the transition frequency between the lowest two levels of surface state electrons. The GHz wave does not excite the transitions but generates a GHz-varying Stark effect with the symmetry-breaking eigenstates of electrons on liquid helium. We show an effective coupling between the inputting THz and GHz waves, which appears at the critical point that the detuning between electrons and THz wave is equal to the frequency of GHz wave. By this coupling, the THz and GHz waves cooperatively excite electrons and generate the low-frequency ac currents along the perpendicular direction of liquid helium surface to be experimentally detected by the image-charge approach (Phys Rev Lett 123:086801, 2019). This offers an alternative approach for THz detections.
