    Area of Science:

    • Condensed Matter Physics
    • Materials Science
    • Spectroscopy

    Background:

    • Anisotropic terahertz absorption is vital for understanding the physics of materials like 2D materials and protein crystals.
    • Existing methods for measuring terahertz absorption can be slow or lack the resolution needed for microscopic samples.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a novel, rapid method for determining anisotropic terahertz absorption with sub-micron resolution and high spectral integrity.
    • To enable detailed characterization of polarization-dependent terahertz interactions in sensitive materials.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a technique utilizing an iso-response relationship between terahertz (THz) polarization and electro-optic probe polarization.
    • Implementation of stationary sample polarization measurements to achieve full 2π polarization dependence.
