Description
We demonstrate broadband THz generation in organic crystals driven by mid-IR $3.9\,\mathrm{\mu m}$ pulses. Due to the suppression of multi-photon absorption, we record an order of magnitude increase in the damage and optical to THz conversion saturation thresholds as compared to conventional near-IR pump schemes.
