Abstract
We demonstrate the use of a fiber stretcher as an optical delay line in a fiber-coupled THz spectrometer. No measurable dispersion effects occur when extending the fiber. Measurements of the terahertz pulses at a stretching frequency of 20 Hz show the great potential of such a device for future all-fiber terahertz systems.
