Fig. 1. (a, b) Two- and three-pulse sequences with a near-infrared pulse generating electrons (orange), a THz probe pulse (blue), and a perturbing THz pulse (green). The pulses are shown along the real-time axis t. The time interval T is the waiting time, the time interval τ the delay time. In the two-pulse sequence, the perturbing THz pulse is absent. (c) Contour plot of the probe pulse EPr(t,t) as a function of real time t and delay time t. The diagonal orange line indicates the temporal position of the near-infrared pulse. (d) Contour plot of the electric field Eboth(t,t) containing both the perturbing THz pulse (diagonal trace) and the THz probe pulse (vertical trace).
