Under optical pumped by mid-infrared lasers, silicon crystals doped by group-V donor centers reveal stimulated emission in terahertz range. Different features of the population inversion mechanisms in the silicon lasers allow covering the frequency range from 1 to 7 THz with a few tenths of mW pulse peak powers at low lattice temperatures.
