    摘要: A terahertz spectrum test device and system includes a femtosecond fiber laser configured to generate a pump light and a probe light. The pump light excites a terahertz transmitter to generate terahertz waves which are transmitted to a sample suspension device to irradiate a suspended to-be-tested sample, and the probe light is directly transmitted to a terahertz detector. The terahertz detector receives the terahertz waves transmitted from the sample suspension device, and then transmits the terahertz waves and the probe light together to a signal processing circuit to obtain a corresponding terahertz time-domain spectrum. By adoption of the terahertz spectrum test device and system, the to-be-tested sample need not be fixed with a clamp or other instruments, so that terahertz waves will not irradiate to the instrument used for fixing the to-be-tested sample during a terahertz spectrum test, which may otherwise affect the test result.

    摘要: The invention relates to a terahertz full polarization state detection spectrometer, which comprises a terahertz wave generator, a polarizer, a polarization splitter, a horizontal terahertz detector and a vertical terahertz detector. The terahertz wave generator generates a terahertz wave and the polarizer optimizes the terahertz wave for purity. The sample to be detected modulates the terahertz wave after purity optimization to obtain the terahertz modulated wave. The terahertz modulated wave is decomposed by the polarization splitter into a horizontal terahertz wave and a vertical terahertz wave whose polarization states are perpendicular to each other. The two terahertz waves are detected by two corresponding terahertz detectors respectively. According to the detected result, the characteristic of the sample is analyzed. The terahertz full polarization state detection spectrometer can quickly and accurately detect all kinds of full polarization state terahertz waves and improve the detection accuracy and efficiency of the sample.

The radio-frequency module includes one or more radio-frequency link units connected in parallel, the antenna array includes one or more antenna sub-arrays, and each antenna sub-array is connected with one of the radio-frequency modules. The hybrid beamforming technology includes analog and digital beamforming. In this structure, the analog beamforming parameters and the digital beamforming parameters are constant, and the number of radio-frequency link units in the radio-frequency module, the number of antenna sub-arrays in the antenna array, the analog beamforming parameters, and the digital beamforming parameters are in a quantitative relation. The structure of the antenna array and the number of radio-frequency link units in each radio-frequency module can be adjusted dynamically under the condition where the performance is guaranteed, and accordingly, the hardware complexity is reduced.

    摘要: The present application relates to a terahertz time-domain spectroscopy system. In this terahertz time-domain spectroscopy system, the femtosecond laser light radiated by the femtosecond laser is collimated by a first diaphragm, and then is split by a beam splitter into a pump light and a probe light. The pump light passes through the first light path module to generate a terahertz pulse, and the probe light passes through the first light path module to generate a linear polarization probe light having the same optical distance as that of the pump light. The linear polarization probe light and the terahertz pulse are combined by a beam combiner to obtain a light beam to be detected carrying the terahertz pulse information. Two electro-optical crystals with the same thickness are used in a detection device simultaneously. Changing the crystal axis angle of the two electro-optical crystals, there is a phase compensation to the two components o light and e light of the probe light, so as to realize linear detection to high power terahertz pulse and improve measurement accuracy.
