Device for improving test accuracy of spectrum absorbance on basis of terahertz optical combs

Abstract

The invention relates to a device for improving the test accuracy of spectrum absorbance on the basis of terahertz optical combs. The device is characterized in that one of two ultrafast laser pulse beams with set repeat frequency difference is transmitted through a terahertz wave generating system to generate terahertz waves, terahertz wave signals and the other ultrafast laser pulse beam are respectively focused and are jointly transmitted into a photoconductive detection antenna, the terahertz waves can be quickly scanned by the aid of tiny repeat frequency difference between pump beams and probe beams, a digital converter is controlled by the aid of a cross-correlation instrument and a rubidium atom frequency standard, the signal acquisition time is prolonged to obtain time-domain spectra of continuous terahertz pulse chains, terahertz comb-shaped spectra are obtained by means of Fourier transformation, accurate change of the optical combs is compared before and after sample placement, and accordingly terahertz absorption spectrum lines of samples can be obtained. The device has the advantages that the shortcoming of excessive scanning time consumption of mechanical delay devices can be overcome, the problem of inaccuracy of existing terahertz super-continuous spectra due to laser pulse time jitter can be solved, and the test accuracy of the terahertz spectrum absorbance can be improved.
