Remote terahertz (THz) generation from a two-color femtosecond laser-induced filament in air was experimentally demonstrated. A record of remote THz emission at 16 m was achieved. THz pulse energy more than 250 nJ in the frequency range below 5.5 THz was recorded; this is two orders of magnitude stronger than that from single-color excitation. Back-scattered nitrogen (N(2)) fluorescence signal remotely measured with a lidar is linearly proportional to the THz emission, which would provide a more practical method to characterize the THz pulses.
