Abstract
Summary form only given. Imaging experiments using free-space pulses of terahertz (THz) radiation have been demonstrated. Traditionally THz imaging systems generate images via transmission measurements. But imaging can be done in a reflection geometry where the THz beam illuminates the target and its reflections are collected and measured. Unlike others, this method allows the measurement of nonuniform, opaque objects.
