Abstract
Terahertz ATR spectroscopy was used to monitor the crystallization of sugar on confectionary products. The time-dependent spectroscopy could used to follow phase transition from the aqueous phase into a glassy state followed by a crystallization of the sugar on the ATR window. Terahertz pulsed imaging was also used to investigated the final product.
