with magnetized carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in the presence of a DC electric field is shown to broaden the surface plasmon resonance effectively. The prime feature of the interaction of lasers with magnetized CNTs is that when the electron cylinder of CNT is shifted with respect to the ion cylinder, the space charge electric field is developed in the overlapped region and results in the restoration force of the electrons. The restoration force along with the ponderomotive and magnetic forces assist to increase the nonlinear current which is further enhanced by the drift velocity acquired by the electrons of CNTs due to the applied static electric field. This action is also responsible for the enhanced THz yield at surface plasmon resonance condition
