摘要： Time-domain measurements are carried out using arrangements and methods. A transmitter generates electro-magnetic pulses upon receipt of pulses of an optical pulse source. A coherent detector detects the electro-magnetic pulses or an evoked electro-magnetic signal. A delay line periodically changes the optical path length between the optical pulse source and the coherent detector and/or the electro-magnetic transmitter by periodically moving an optical element of the delay line. A position sensor determines the position of the optical element and smoothes the data generated by the position sensor. The coherent detector detects the electro-magnetic signal evoked by the electro-magnetic pulses. Pulses of the optical pulse source trigger the coherent detector. The time-dependency of the electro-magnetic pulses and/or of the electro-magnetic signal evoked by the electro-magnetic pulses are determined using signals of the coherent detector upon receipt of the electro-magnetic pulses and/or of the electro-magnetic signal and the smoothed position sensor data.

摘要： A material may be identified using THz radiation that simultaneously or sequentially includes at least one first frequency portion and a second frequency portion different therefrom. An object formed from the material to be identified is irradiated with the THz radiation and the THz radiation exiting the object is detected using a phase-sensitive THz receiver. A time or phase offset, caused by the object, is measured at least for the first frequency portion and a material thickness is determined therefrom. Attenuation of the received signal, at least for the second frequency portion, is determined. An absorption coefficient for at least the second frequency portion is calculated using the material thickness.

摘要： The invention relates to a method for determining a liquid in a closed container using THz radiation, in which a first and a second measurement are carried out, wherein the THz radiation is emitted in the direction of the liquid for measuring properties of the liquid, and a portion of the THz radiation coming from the direction of the liquid is detected. In the proposed method, the closed container contains, in addition to the liquid, a gas, wherein a wall of the container is transmissive for THz radiation and wherein the detected portion of the THz radiation in the first measurement is reflected at a boundary surface between the wall and the gas or a pocket containing the gas, and in-the second measurement is reflected at a boundary surface between the wall and the liquid. The first measurement thus serves as a reference measurement for capturing disturbing losses in the THz beam path and for determining influences of the wall on a measurement result for the second measurement. The invention further relates to an arrangement suitable for carrying out this method.
