Abstract
Terahertz and mm-wave applications at ENEA-Frascati
Highlights
This wide variety of applications requires an wide range of sources and radiation characteristics
The majority of applications exploits the spectral fingerprints of the chemical species contained in the material under investigation and takes advantage from the fact that THz radiation can penetrate through plastic, cardboard and clothes, without causing the hazards of ionizing radiation (X-ray) and suffering at the same time less scattering than near-infrared radiation
Beside Free Electron Lasers (FELs) sources, our laboratory has been equipped with an extensive assortment of other coherent sources, both lasers and electron devices as a part of the Center of Excellence for Terahertz Radiation and Applications (CETRA)
Summary
This wide variety of applications requires an wide range of sources and radiation characteristics. The ENEA Compact FEL is based on a microtron electron accelerator capable of generating a relativistic beam at an energy of 2.3 MeV with a current of 300 mA, in 4 s pulses.
