We present results on the terahertz (THz) radiation from a photoconductive switch fabricated on a zinc oxide (ZnO) single crystal. Due to its high transmittance in the visible, near-infrared, mid-infrared, and THz regions, ZnO may present itself as a viable material for integrated active optics oper...
