Temporal diffraction from rapidly time-modulated materials can generate new frequency components not present in an incident wave. In such an experiment, the spectral extent of these new frequencies is determined by the rate of modulation relative to the period of the oscillating field. Here we present a temporal diffraction experiment carried out in the far-infrared (THz) spectral region. Using graphene, a fast modulator for this spectral domain, we show that one can modulate the transmission significantly faster than the period of a narrow band THz field. This leads to a large bandwidth for the generated frequencies, including the generation of negative frequency components. We show that interference between negative and positive frequency components give rise to distinctive oscillatory features in the transmitted spectrum.
