Area of Science:

  • Optics and Photonics
  • Terahertz Science and Technology
  • Imaging Systems

Background:

  • Terahertz (THz) imaging offers unique capabilities due to its non-ionizing nature and ability to penetrate various materials.
  • Traditional THz imaging techniques often face limitations in resolution and real-time acquisition.
  • Digital holography provides a pathway to high-resolution imaging by recording and reconstructing wavefront information.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose and demonstrate a novel terahertz (THz) Gabor in-line digital holography system.
  • To achieve high-resolution and real-time imaging in the terahertz frequency range.
  • To evaluate the resolution performance of the developed THz digital holography system.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a continuous-wave (CW) laser emitting at 2.52 THz, pumped by a CO2 laser.
