Abstract

We have examined application feasibility of THz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) to inspect 30 kinds of illicit drugs, 20 kinds of amino acid and 10 kinds of explosives and related compounds (ERCs). We also have got their fingerprints, established the corresponding database, and propose the reference-free methods to extract the absorption or reflection spectra, respectively. We also use optical pump THz probe to research the ultrafast dynamics of semiconductor. While, we also present some new THz imaging techniques, such as, focal-plane multiwavelength phase imaging, reference-free phase imaging, polarization imaging, and continuous-wave (CW) standoff distance imaging.
