Yes, but not necessarily "swamped". Since THz spectrometers are as rare as hen's teeth, how would you ever know if that is what is going on? This modality goes along with the "proton gas" at the active interface, in some forms of LENR, as mentioned by Miley, forming recurrent wave variations based on the underlying geometry. The frequency which results can be "hit or miss," inasmuch as it depends on the microstructure of the matrix (not uniform). This is not unlike waves in water being influenced by both the depth and bottom features. The DC bias is probably being effectively modulated into THz AC (as felt by the "excitons" at the interface) or at least as THz pulses, depending on capacitance. This seems to be purely a function of interface geometry and therefore of the microstructure of the metal matrix which defines the surface. My suggestion of an applied THz coherent light input would be to convert the "hit or miss" of normal modulated DC into what can be described as "always in phase" The effect should be dramatic - if it exists at all. IOW there is some concern that it could be a carastrophic effect. Jones
