Abstract :
A reconfigurable, all-reflective terahertz imager has been constructed, capable of 4096-pixel resolution in 20 seconds. The imager spans 0.09-0.90 THz in 5 bands, each represented by a 16-element detector array. Both, beam profiling and confocal imaging configurations have been demonstrated.
