The TeraTune® is a tunable terahertz source designed to deliver narrowband frequencies between 1.5 and 20 THz with bandwidths under 100 GHz. It uses a flash lamp-pumped laser (repetition rate 50 Hz to 200 Hz) with a specialized optical parametric oscillator (OPO) for precise, electronically controlled bandwidth below 100 GHz. The system is optimized for efficient THz generation and includes all necessary components for easy operation and control.
TeraTune® offers flexible terahertz frequency generation with a wide tuning range from 1 to 20 THz. It uses advanced optical and laser technologies, including a flash lamp-pumped laser and a novel organic crystal, DSTMS, to achieve high efficiency in THz conversion. The system's frequency is electronically controlled, ensuring precise calibration and bandwidth under 100 GHz. It comes with everything needed for THz generation, including optical, mechanical, and electronic components, as well as software for seamless control.
