    摘要: A passive, non-contact radio frequency (RF) strain sensor changes resonant frequency as it is deformed. The sensor's resonant frequency can be determined by monitoring the signals transmitted and/or reflected therefrom upon illumination of the sensor by a known RF signal source. The sensor can be implemented using thin film techniques on a flexible thin substrate that can be attached to the surface of a structural member of interest.

    摘要: Methods to infer the density of defects in high κ dielectric films in a non-contact, non-invasive and non-destructive manner. THz radiation is employed to measure the change in electrical conductivity of the films before and after illumination with visible light, where the visible light photoionizes the defects thereby changing the electrical conductivity and changing the transmission (or reflection) of THz radiation from the films. The disclosed techniques can be employed to make measurements as soon as wafers are fabricated. The technology is applicable to wafers of any size.

    摘要: Near field imaging using a THz imaging system is realized by utilizing an interferometric imaging detector array that includes detector elements disposed on a surface curved, physically or artificially, to match substantially the curvature of the wave front for received THz signals. Generally, the near field is an environment wherein the distance to an object of interest is on the order of 10-100 times larger than the physical size of the THz imaging array. Typical distances from the object or target to the imaging array is anticipated to be in the 0.5 m-50 m range. Curvature of the detector array corrects a distortion problem in prior THz imaging systems that utilized planar interferometric imaging arrays based on a planar wave front assumption for received THz signals.
