Abstract	We used two temporally separated femtosecond pulses to manipulate the waveforms of multi-cycle THz pulses through optical rectification in periodically-poled lithium mobate (PPLN). The relative phase of the THz pulses was controlled by the relative time delay between the optical pulses. This phase adjustability combined with the frequency tunability of the PPLN sample enables the pulse shaping of multi-cycle narrow-band THz pulses. The THz pulse shaping technique is applicable to coherent control of molecular excitations and of carrier population in semiconductors.
