摘要:
Method and apparatus for determining dielectric function of liquid solutions and thereby concentrations of substances in aqueous solution or the volatile/non-volatile nature of the liquid by self-referenced reflection THz spectroscopy. Having the aqueous solution in any container with a window allows irradiating coherent THz radiation with frequencies within the range 0.05 - 2 THz on the front of the window, and recording both a reference signal reflected from the front of the window and a sample signal reflected from the back of the window in contact with the aqueous solution. From these signals, the complex index of refraction, (I) or the complex reflection coefficient (II), can be calculated. The calculated components are compared with previously determined components from samples with known concentrations, whereby a concentration of the substance in the mixture can be estimated. The invention is particularly useful for determining alcohol (ethanol) content in aqueous solution containing other substances and particles.

In a photoelectric conversion device, the meta-surface includes a first antenna portion, a first bias portion, a second antenna portion, and a second bias portion. The first antenna portion extends in a first direction and emits an electron in response to incidence of the electromagnetic wave. The first bias portion faces the first antenna portion and is configured to generate an electric field having a component in the first direction between the first bias portion and the first antenna portion. The second antenna portion extends in a second direction intersecting the first direction and emits an electron in response to incidence of the electromagnetic wave. The second bias portion faces the second antenna portion and is configured to generate an electric field having a component in the second direction between the second bias portion and the second antenna portion.

摘要:
A terahertz (THz) cross-correlation device for material characterization of a sample comprising an optical source for outputting a continuous-wave (CW) optical signal; THz antennas providing a THz transmitter and a THz receiver optically coupled to the optical source, and an optical delay setup configured to adjust a synchronization of the THz receiver to the THz transmitter by the CW optical signal. The optical source is configured to provide a CW optical signal having an at least substantially continuous broadband spectrum and the optical paths for the CW signal are provided by optical waveguides such as optical fibres or integrated waveguides. The optical delay setup comprises a double-pass polarization-conserving fibre stretcher comprising a circulator, a fibre stretcher, and a Faraday mirror; and/or a variable solid state optical delay (SSOD).
摘要:
In a photoelectric conversion device, the potential control unit controls electric potentials applied to the meta-surface. The meta- surface includes a plurality of patterns which are space away from each other. The plurality of patterns include an antenna portion and at least one bias portion. The antenna portion extends in a predetermined direction and emits the electron in response to incidence of the electromagnetic wave. The potential control unit switches a first state and a second state by controlling the electric potentials applied to the plurality of patterns. In the first state, a component of an electric field from the bias portion toward the antenna portion in a predetermined direction is positive. In the second state, a component of an electric field from the bias portion toward the antenna portion in the predetermined direction is negative.
