High-speed THz spectroscopic imaging at ten kilohertz pixel rate with amplitude and phase contrast
2019
By combining the advantages of the high-speed ASOPS technology and efficient THz generation, we have realized a high-speed laser-based spectroscopic THz imaging system with more than 10,000 pixels per second acquisition speed and an excellent signal-to-noise ratio of more than 100. Unlike THz line cameras or mm-wave intensity detectors, the present device allows for a much higher spatial resolution and attributes each imaging pixel with phase and amplitude information up to several THz while simultaneously maintaining a very high scanning speed unmatched by any other technique presented so far. The high-speed acquisition allows for samples to be scanned even at sample velocities of 5 m/s or higher while preserving the fundamental resolution limit of the THz radiation, which is on the order of 500 µm in the present case.
