摘要：

We report the first subpicosecond shockwaves ever generated and measured by entirely electronic means. These shockwaves have 880 fs fall times with 3.5 V amplitudes. This was accomplished at T=77 K with a monolithic nonlinear transmission line and diode sampling bridge fabricated on GaAs. We have used these circuits with integrated antennas to generate freely propagating pulses and have detected measurable radiation beyond 3 THz.
