Abstract
We present a comparison of fast optical sampling in a THz time domain system using ASOPS and ECOPS and a conventional opto-mechanical TDS based system. The system is operated both with the fundamental (1560 nm) and the frequency doubled output of a fiber laser. LT-GaAs based photoconductive switches are applied as THz emitters and detectors.
