24. The orientation of the grating lines with respect to the plane of incidence is of significance only for the excitation intensity, but not for the THz-emission results discussed here. We have experimentally verified that the relevant features of the THz data are reproduced when the angle of incidence is changed from perpendicular to parallel.
