Abstract

The temporal advancement of THz pulses in diffractio by a subwavelength aperture was due to the intrinsic negative chirp was demonstrated. The effect was clearly observed only for sufficiently small apertures, when the bandwidth of the transmitted pulse exceeds the bandwidth on the incident pulse. The temporal advancement can be removed by eliminating the chirp of the THz pulse.
