Abstract :
We proposed a fiber-based, asynchronous optical sampling THz time-domain spectroscopy system by combination of mode-locked Er-doped fiber lasers and photoconductive antennas. The proposed system will become a fast, compact, alignment-free, robust, and flexible apparatus without any mechanical moving parts.
