  abstract     = {{The TU Dortmund University operates the 1.5-GeV electron storage ring DELTA as a synchrotron light source in user operation and for accererator physics research. At a dedicated beamline, experiments with (sub-)THz radiation are carried out. Here, an interaction of short laser pulses with electron bunches is used to modulate the electron energy which causes the formation of a dip in the longitudinal electron density, giving rise to the coherent emission of radiation between 75 GHz and 6 THz. The standard mode of operation is the generation of broadband radiation. However, more sophisticated energy modulation schemes were implemented using a liquid-crystal phase modulator. Here, a modulation of the spectral phase of the laser is used to control the spectral shape of the THz pulses. The resulting THz spectra have a relative bandwidth of about 2 %. Measurement results from the different THz generation schemes are presented.}},
