1, in this THz imaging technology, object to be imaged is positioned in Terahertz transmitted light path, the THz wave of carrying object image-forming information is all received by a point probe that is fixing, that do not do spatial discrimination, and the point probe in Terahertz reflected light path does aerial image flat scanning, serve as measurement of spatial resolution task.Like this, being separated of object and imaging detector is just achieved.That is, even if after the light field of carrying imaging object information in Terahertz transmitted light path is subject to the random disturbance of external environment, still can obtain in Terahertz reflected light path clearly as.Therefore, this THz imaging technology can significantly improve antijamming capability and the imaging dirigibility of terahertz imaging system;
2, in this imaging technique based on the pseudo-thermal light source of THz wave, because its image-forming principle is the principle based on intensity fluctuation association, therefore lower to the sensitivity requirement of terahertz detector, select the schottky barrier photodiode of terahertz wave band.
