The electromagnetic vibrator is a low-energy magnetic vibrator, which can be excited by an alternating electric field due to the coupling with an optical phonon, and the element excitation has the following two characteristics: first, because it is a magneton that can be directly excited by the electric field component of an electromagnetic wave, it is found that its frequency tends to be in the terahertz band, lower than the frequency of an optical phonon in a sample to be measured. Secondly, the excitation of the electromagnetic vibrator has a selection rule, that is, the electromagnetic vibrator can be excited only by placing an alternating electric field along a certain specific crystal axis. Due to the particularity of the electromagnetic vibrator, a common terahertz time-domain spectroscopy system is difficult to excite and observe the electromagnetic vibrator, and therefore the terahertz time-domain spectroscopy system for microstructure representation of multiferroic materials is provided.
