Guided terahertz pulse reflectometry with double photoconductive antenna

This article presents a terahertz imaging system using a waveguide with a reflection topology. The system is based on a femtosecond pulse laser, a transceiver, and a silica pipe hollow-core waveguide. Silicon lens, beam splitter or coupler is no more required to manipulate the terahertz beam in free space, which makes this system setup more compact and easier to align.

Skeletonization and 3D rendering with real time terahertz tomography

In this collaborative article between Lytid, IMS and Noctylio, we explore the application of terahertz (THz) technology in tomography to create 3D reconstructions in real time. The experimental setup is based on a latest generation micro-bolometric camera with 240×320 pixels, equipped with an anti-reflective coated lens developed by Lytid, to record the projection images of…

Terahertz diffractive imaging with saturated data inpainting

This article focuses on improving diffraction imaging techniques in the field of Térahertz frequencies, by approaching the problem of data saturation due to the limited dynamic range of detection systems. We introduce with the ITMO team (Nikolay V Petrov Team) a new approach to algorithmic reconstruction which deals with saturated areas in the measured intensity…
