AI enhanced strong-field terahertz spectral detection and imaging.

ABSTRACT: Terahertz (THz) waves demonstrate advantages including broad absolute bandwidth, low photon energy, and superior penetration capability, showing significant potential in nondestructive testing and spectroscopic imaging applications. However, current techniques face challenges including unknown material refractive indices, pulse signal aliasing, and time-consuming detection processes, which hinder the advancement and commercialization of THz-based nondestructive testing. This work presents a nondestructive testing system employing an enhanced 4-inch spintronic strong-field THz emitter, integrated with neural-network-assisted thickness prediction and contour detection. The system achieves micrometer-scale accuracy for ultrathin materials and rapid defect identification in large-scale samples
