Research Abstract |
In our project, THz-waves continue to broaden their range of applications as following. The absence of non-destructive inspection techniques for illicit drugs hidden in mail envelopes has resulted in such drugs being freely smuggled across international borders. We have developed a basic technology for THz imaging which allows detection and identification of drugs concealed in envelopes by introducing the component spatial pattern analysis^2. The spatial distribution and the composition of the targets are obtained from THz multispectral transillumination images, using absorption spectra measured with a tunable THz wave source. We further demonstrated a component spatial pattern analysis of chemicals using 2-dimensional electro-optic THz imaging which can capture real-time THz images^3. By changing the optical delay of the pump beam, the CCD camera records time-dependent THz images. The multispectral images and the spectral data set were measured between 0.1 and 1.0 THz ; the chemical composition, the spatial distribution, and the difference in concentration were clearly determined. On the other hand, for inspecting electrical failures in large scale integration circuit (LSI), we developed the laser-THz emission microscope (LTEM), which records the map of THz emission amplitude in a sample upon excitation with fs laser pulses^4. Clear two-dimensional THz-emission images of the IC chip are recorded as the chip is scanned with laser beam. The LTEM images of damaged chips show different patterns from those of normal chips. Also, by modulating the input signal of the IC chip, the signal lines can be traced. These results suggest that the LTEM could become a useful tool for inspecting and monitoring IC quality. As a demonstration, we succeeded in obtaining the THz emission image of a MOSFET sample under zero bias condition.
