N2 - This study provides a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of global research trends in terahertz (THz) generation. Terahertz radiation, which has a frequency between microwaves and infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, has drawn substantial scientific attention because of its unique properties and potential uses in telecommunications, security screening, medical imaging, and material characterization. In order to thoroughly examine the scholarly landscape, we utilized bibliometric analysis tools: VOSviewer and the Bibliometrix R-Package. The study analyzed over 3,600 publications from 2003 to 2023, providing insights into the annual publication trends, most prolific and cited journals, authors, countries, affiliations, KeyWords Plus, and key articles. Findings reveal an average annual growth rate of 4.42 percent in THz generation-related publications. China, Japan, and the USA emerged as leading countries in publication counts, while key journals included "Applied Physics Letters" and "Optics Express." Osaka University (Japan), Tohoku University (Japan), and Tianjin University (China) are the leading affiliations. Xi-Cheng Zhang, affiliated with "The Institute of Optics, University of Rochester, USA," is the most productive and cited author. KeyWord Plus co-occurrence analysis yielded three primary research clusters and identified emerging trends, providing direction for future research. By offering a detailed map of global THz generation research, this paper serves as a valuable guide for new researchers, helping them identify key resources, potential collaborators, and emerging research trajectories.
