A Reliable Method for Extraction of Material Parameters in Terahertz Time-Domain Spectroscopy
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper introduces a novel method that allows fast and reliable extraction of material parameters in terahertz time-domain spectroscopy. This method could be applied for most of materials and requires neither simplifying assumptions nor samples of different thickness for the extraction. The presented extraction procedure operates either on truncated terahertz signals when temporal windowing is possible, or on full ones otherwise. Some experimental examples covering all practical cases are given. In particular, the extraction procedure treats the tedious case of samples for which internal reflections of the terahertz pulse slightly overlap.

DEVELOPMENT OF AN EO SAMPLING METHOD FOR THz PULSE DETECTION
We have been studying an S-band Cs-Te photo-cathode rf gun at Waseda University. The high quality electron beam produced by the rf gun is used to generate a high-power coherent terahertz pulse via Cherenkov radiation. This terahertz pulse can be applied to imaging and material analysis. As a preliminary step towards material analysis, we conducted experiments on terahertz time domain spectrosco...

Development of techniques for characterization of extremely thin films is an important challenge in terahertz (THz) science and applications. Spectroscopic measurements of materials on the nanometer scale or of atomic layer thickness (2D materials) require a sufficient terahertz wave–matter interaction length, which is challenging to achieve in conventional transmission geometry. Waveguide-base...
متن کاملBeam waist measurement for terahertz time-domain spectroscopy experiments.
Classical masking aperture methods are found to be mostly inaccurate to determine the terahertz beam size in terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (TDS) experiments, owing to complex diffraction effects. Here, we present a simple and reliable method for measuring beam waists in terahertz TDS. It is based on the successive diffraction by an opaque disk followed by a small circular aperture.

From classical charge transport equations and dipole radiation equations, we derive a simple analytical model for the signal detected in terahertz time-domain spectroscopy using photoconducting antennas. The validity of our model is checked by comparison to published calculated results and to experimental data we have measured. This expression depends mostly on the carrier lifetime in the anten...

This paper presents experimental study of real human skin material parameter extraction based on Terahertz (THz) Time Domain Spectroscopy in the band 0.1 2.5 THz. Results in this paper show that electromagnetic properties of the human skin distinctively affects the pathloss and noise temperature parameters of the communication link, which are vital for channel modeling of in-body nano-networks....
