NIR-THz spectral splitter is used for separation of pump radiation (centered in the wavelength range 790-800 nm) from THz radiation in Ti:Sapphire laser and MIR-THz spectral splitter – for separation of pump radiation (9.6 μm and 10.6 μm) from THz radiation in THz laser optically pumped by CO2 -laser.
