Compact Terahertz Spectrometer Using Optical Beam Recycling and Heterodyne Detection

Compact terahertz spectrometer. The spectrometer includes an optical beam both for generating terahertz radiation for interaction with the sample and for use in a detector. A DC heterodyne detector uses a DC field-induced second harmonic wave at a sensor plasma to serve as a local oscillator. The spectrometer has a bandwidth orders of magnitude larger than conventional THz spectrometers.

Holographic filters for spectroscopic identification of substances

A method, system, and apparatus provide for the creation and use of a holographic filter. The holographic filter has multiple superpositioned holograms within a volume holographic medium. These superpositioned holograms synthesize a filter shape with multiple peaks at specified positions. The shape of the holographic filter matches a spectrum of a substance. The holographic filter may then be used (e.g., in a spectrometer) to simultaneously detect peaks in the spectrum of the matching substance.

Method for material property monitoring with perforated, surface mounted sensors

Material condition monitoring may be performed by electromagnetic sensors and sensor arrays mounted to the material surface. The sensors typically have a periodic winding or electrode structure that creates a periodic sensing field when driven by an electrical signal. The sensors can be thin and flexible so that they conform to the surface of the test material. They can also be mounted such that they do not significantly modify the environmental exposure conditions for the test material, such as by creating stand-off gaps between the sensor and material surface or by perforating the sensor substrate.
