Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of terahertz imaging, in particular to a portable terahertz semi-active color camera. Background technique
[0002] Terahertz (THz) waves usually refer to electromagnetic radiation (1THz=10 12 Hz), which lies between microwaves and infrared radiation on the electromagnetic spectrum. Terahertz wave radiation can have the following characteristics in imaging applications: Terahertz wave radiation can penetrate many common non-metallic covering materials and detect hidden objects; the wavelength of terahertz wave is short enough to obtain higher imaging spatial resolution , or to achieve high-precision positioning of dangerous objects; electromagnetic radiation at terahertz frequencies is non-ionizing to organisms, so it is safer for the human body when used at an appropriate intensity; compared with microwave and millimeter wave imaging systems, under the same image resolution, Terahertz imaging systems are ...
