This study investigates the use of Zinc Telluride (ZnTe) as a second-order nonlinear coating to enhance THz wave generation in silica nanofibers. Numerical simulations show that ZnTe coatings can significantly improve THz wave generation efficiency due to their large second-order nonlinear susceptibility and high transparency in the THz frequency range. Specifically, we observe a 2000-fold increase in THz wave generation efficiency with a 100nm thickness ZnTe coating compared to an uncoated silica nanofiber.
