Abstract :
We present experimental implementation of high-speed broadband frequency sweep of CW THz radiation applicable to high-speed THz spectroscopy and tomography. A wavelength-swept laser and a distributed-feedback laser diode constitute a high-speed frequency-swept optical beat source used for photomixing.
