Projects:2021s1-13152 Terahertz coherent tomography for inspection of leaf moisture content in-situ

Abstract here

Introduction

The terahertz range is an electromagnetic spectrum between 0.1 and 10 THz. It locates at the transition between the electronics and photonics domains. Terahertz waves yield an exciting capability of non-destructive evaluation (NDE), since they can penetrate dry and non-metallic materials. In the past, terahertz waves have been used to monitor moisture content in leaves. However, most studies were conducted in transmission, not suitable for field testing. In this project, the students will conduct feasibility study on terahertz sensing of overlapping leaves in reflection. It will involve coherent tomography and Bessel beam forming. They will learn skills in optics, signal processing, and terahertz measurement. For more information about the group: https://www.thz-el.org/
