W H A T I S T E R A H E R T Z R A D I A T I O N ?The The THz portion of the electromagnetic spectrum fills the gap between the far infrared and the microwaves. More precisely, it is nestled between the high-frequency edge of the microwave band, 300 gigahertz (3×1011 Hz), and the long-wavelength edge of far-infrared light, 3000 GHz (3×1012 Hz or 3 THz). In wavelengths, this range corresponds to 0.1 mm (or 100 μm) infrared to 1.0 mm microwave. The THz band is set in the region where electromagnetic physics can best be described by its wave-like characteristics (microwave) and its particle-like characteristics (infrared). a

W H A T I S I T U S E D F O R ?

THz radiation is interesting because of the way it interacts with matter:• It can penetrate things like wood, plastics, clothing, and other

materials. • It is also absorbed by water, or a material that contains water,

like human skin.• It is non-ionizing and therefore not harmful to humans like

X-rays can be.

One of the first uses is the “full body scan” used at airports. It also has uses in medical applications for early detection of cancer cells.

H O W I S I T M E A S U R E D ?

THz sources come in many varieties, including those with CW or Pulsed outputs. They range in power from nW to mW and in energy from nJ to mJ. Like most electromagnetic sources, they must be characterized for performance and/or control.

Older THz detection methods include:

•Golay Cells•Micro-bolometers•Pyroelectric detector and electrical devices like photo-acoustic

and Schottky diode detectors

W H Y A R E G E N T E C - E O P R O D U C T S B E T T E R ?

•Golay Cells used to be the detector of choice, but they are costly and often very large.

• Pyroelectric Detectors (like the ones used in our THZ Detectors) used to have lower performances, but recent advances placed them on the same technical level as Golay Cells, and even higher. Pyroelectric Detectors in THz measuring show several benefits to the user:

•Broadband thermal response from 0.25 to 3000 μm• Can be used at room temperature with high sensitivity (measure nW of power and nJ of energy)• Wider power range (from nW to mW)• Lower cost

The “TUNE” tab selects the very useful “Tuning Needle” display. This is a simulated analog meter whose speed is determined by the “filter tau” setting. It is expected to be used during the set-up of a radiometer with a source. The “tau” value is usually set to a small value when aligning the probe to the source (i.e. when peaking the reading). There a button control to select “full scale”, “min-max” or “reset”. In the “min-max” mode, the indicators are “blue” for the minimum power and “red” for the maximum power.

I N S T R U M E N T C O N T R O L A N D S T R I P C H A R T

Instrument controls and the radiant power measurement are always visible, making it easy to change the radiometer settings, no matter which display tab is selected. Instrument controls include: Range, Filter Tau, Batch Size, Data Collection Mode, Reset Options, and a Null button for background cancellation. In addition, there are more set up and operation status indicators including: detector Rv, Wavelength, Frequency (actual), Locked and Frequency in Range lights. The Strip Chart displays the Radiant Power measurement in Watts, either continuously or by the batch. Select full scale, auto scale or use our manual scaling option.

T - R a d

The T-Rad is a microprocessor-based digital radiometer that includes a 12-bit ADC and unique DSP Lock-In Software. It is powered by a USB connection, which also acts as a Virtual COM port. When a THZ-B Terahertz Pyroelectric detector is plugged into the T-Rad module, the module reads the content of the head’s EEPROM, which identifies the detector and provides calibration and wavelength correction data. The LabView Software supplied with the device makes it very easy to set up the radiometer, measure a THz or broadband source and record data. The software is compatible with Windows XP, VISTA and 7.

Although analog solutions are available, for simplicity, convenience and sensitivity, we recommend you choose our THZ-B-DZ detectors and the T-Rad Digital Radiometer. Our unique DSP Lock-In Amplifier software provides a function much like the Analog Lock-In, but is so much easier to use. It also addresses thermal drift of the sensor and allows you to display the power measurement and complete statistics directly in digital and graphic formats. Set the range, null the background, set the filter tau (bandwidth) and make the measurement. It’s that easy!

THZ-B-DA DETECTOR AND LOCK-IN AMPLIFIER

This is another analog set-up option that we recommended it if you have to measure very low power levels (i.e. less than 5 μW) where the signal may be buried in the broadband noise. The voltage output of the analog THZ-B-DA detector, powered by our T-Rad-Analog, is routed to the Lock-In Amplifier input, and the Sync Output of our SDC-500 Chopper is connected to the reference input. The Lock-In Amplifier will lock on the chopping frequency and you can dial in a long integrating time and measure a very low RMS voltage. The voltage divided by our Voltage Responsivity (V/W) equals the power of the source.

T H Z - B - D A D E T E C T O R A N D O S C I L L O S C O P E

Here is a basic analog set up that would be useful if the optical power of the source was about 5 μW or greater. The output of the THZ5B-BL-DA detector would be approximately 600 mV @ 5 Hz chopping frequency, giving plenty of signal for an oscilloscope. Simply read the voltage output and divide by the Rv factor (V/W) of the detector to measure the intensity of the source in Watts. Also consider applying a wavelength correction factor under certain circumstances.

I N S T R U M E N T C O N T R O L A N D S T A T I S T I C S

In the “Statistics” tab there are 4 large windows that contain the statistics for the selected batch, including: Minimum, Maximum, Standard Deviation and Mean, expressed in Engineering Notation. Standard Deviation can be displayed in Watts or as a % that is user-selectable. There is also a window that shows the bandwidth of the Digital Band Pass Filter based on the user selected “Filter Tau” (0.100 to 100 seconds). A lower time constant is helpful when setting up, and a longer one when making measurements, especially on the lower ranges of the instrument.
