Abstract

We provide a comprehensive technical analysis of the data acquisition process with oscillating delay lines for Terahertz-time domain spectroscopy. The utilization of these rapid stages, particularly in high-repetition-rate systems, is known to enable an effective reduction of noise content through averaging. However, caution must be exercised to optimize the data averaging process, with the goal of significantly optimizing the dynamic range (DR) and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Here we discuss some pitfalls to avoid and the effect of improper data handling on the dynamic range obtainable. A free and open-source program, called parrot (Processing All Rapidly & Reliably Obtained THz-traces), is provided alongside this publication to overcome the discussed pitfalls and facilitate the acceleration of experimental setups and data analysis, thereby enhancing signal fidelity and reproducibility.

利用正弦移动延迟线对太赫兹时域光谱数据进行高级数据处理
我们对太赫兹时域光谱中使用振荡延迟线的数据采集过程进行了全面的技术分析。众所周知,利用这些快速阶段,特别是在高重复率系统中,可以通过平均有效减少噪声含量。然而,必须谨慎优化数据平均过程,以显著优化动态范围(DR)和信噪比(SNR)。在此,我们将讨论一些需要避免的误区,以及数据处理不当对可获得动态范围的影响。本刊物还提供了一个名为 parrot(Processing All Rapidly & Reliably Obtained THz-traces)的免费开放源码程序,以克服所讨论的陷阱,促进实验设置和数据分析的加速,从而提高信号的保真度和可重复性。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Infrared, Millimeter, and Terahertz Waves offers a peer-reviewed platform for the rapid dissemination of original, high-quality research in the frequency window from 30 GHz to 30 THz. The topics covered include: sources, detectors, and other devices; systems, spectroscopy, sensing, interaction between electromagnetic waves and matter, applications, metrology, and communications. Purely numerical work, especially with commercial software packages, will be published only in very exceptional cases. The same applies to manuscripts describing only algorithms (e.g. pattern recognition algorithms). Manuscripts submitted to the Journal should discuss a significant advancement to the field of infrared, millimeter, and terahertz waves.
