Spatial Power Sensor Applications
Spatial power sensors in the THz range are crucial for mapping the distribution of THz radiation across an area. This application is essential in both research and industrial environments where precise power measurements can lead to better control and optimization of THz systems. Our compact terahertz components leverages the unique properties of THz waves, such as their ability to penetrate various materials and provide high-resolution imaging without harmful effects.
Real-time THz Beam Monitoring
Real-time monitoring of THz beams allows for immediate adjustments and fine-tuning of THz systems, enhancing their efficiency and performance. This is particularly useful in experimental setups and industrial processes where THz radiation is used.
Polarization-selective THz-sensing
Polarization-selective sensing can distinguish between different polarizations of THz waves, providing additional information about materials and structures. This application is valuable in spectroscopy, material characterization, and communication technologies.
Active THz Imaging
Active THz imaging involves the use of THz sources to illuminate a scene and capture the reflected or transmitted THz waves. This technique is powerful for non-destructive testing, medical imaging, and security scanning, offering detailed insights that are not possible with other imaging modalities.
Security Screening Applications
THz technology is highly effective in security screening because THz waves can penetrate fabrics and non-metallic materials while being non-ionizing and safe for humans. This makes it ideal for detecting concealed objects in security environments like airports and public buildings.
Light-field Imaging
Light-field imaging with THz waves can capture the direction and intensity of light rays in a scene, enabling 3D reconstruction and depth perception. This application can revolutionize fields such as augmented reality, virtual reality, and advanced photography.
Antenna Pattern Measurements
Measuring the radiation patterns of THz antennas is crucial for the development of THz communication systems. Accurate pattern measurements ensure that antennas operate efficiently and effectively in their intended applications, such as high-speed wireless communications.
Computed Tomography
THz CT can create detailed 3D images of objects by scanning them with THz radiation from multiple angles. This application is particularly promising for non-destructive evaluation in industries like aerospace, pharmaceuticals, and art restoration, where traditional X-ray CT might be unsuitable.
