Abstract :
We have built a THz system for one-dimensional imaging with a THz line focus and electro-optic detection based on two line-scan cameras in a balanced arrangement. The system uses pulsed THz radiation generated with a fast-repetition-rate (80 MHz) femtosecond laser and an electrically chopped dipole antenna.
