20100024999TIME DOMAIN SPECTROSCOPY (TDS)-BASED METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR OBTAINING COINCIDENT SHEET MATERIAL PARAMETERS - An in-situ time domain spectroscopy (TDS)-based method (02-04-2010
20100282970Controlling the bends in a fiber optic cable to eliminate measurement error in a scanning terahertz sensor - A terahertz time-domain spectrometer scanning sensor system includes a transmitter and a receiver that are secured to a mobile scanner head. Optical pump light, in the form of short pulses launched from a stationary laser located remotely from the scanner head, is delivered to the transmitter and receiver through a controlled fiber optic cable arrangement so that variations in temporal pulse relays that are associated fiber optic transmission are minimized. In this fashion, the movement of the fiber optic cable is maneuvered along a defined path so as to control the bends in the cable and thus minimize variations in temporal delays that can otherwise arise as the pulses of light are transmitted through the fiber. Pulses of laser light launched from the laser into the optical fiber will exit the cable with consistent (i) time of arrival, (ii) phase duration, and (iii) polarization state and energy.11-11-2010
