We have carried out a theoretical and computation study of optical response of bilayer graphene in the terahertz regime. It is found that the optical response of bilayer graphene can be significantly enhanced by nonlinear process for fields greater than 1000v/cm. The optical nonlinearity of bilayer graphene persists even in room temperature. This suggests that bilayer graphene can potentially be utilized as a temperature-robust nonlinear material in the terahertz regime.

The effect of bandgap opening on the intraband nonlinear optical response of graphene in terahertz frequency regime is theoretically investigated. The nonlinear optical response of gapped graphene is found to be sensitively influenced by the bandgap level and temperature. © 2012 IEEE.

We demonstrate that bilayer graphene exhibits strong nonlinear optical response in the terahertz frequency regime.The electric field strength required to generate single-frequency and triple-frequency nonlinear optical responses comparable to the linear optical response is only moderate and can be easily achieved in laboratory.This strong nonlinear optical response persists even in room temperature.This suggests that bilayer graphene can potentially be utilized in nonlinear terahertz photonics

We demonstrate that the bandgap opening in graphene induced by AB-sublattice symmetry breaking leads to a strong nonlinear optical response for frequencies well below the bandgap where linear response is strictly forbidden. Our result suggests that one type of graphene with such symmetry breaking, semihydrogenated graphene, can have a unique potential as a two-color nonlinear material in the terahertz photonics.
