Industrial Applications of Terahertz Imaging

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Terahertz Spectroscopy and Imaging

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Optical Sciences ((SSOS,volume 171))

Abstract

This chapter gives a concise overview of potential industrial applications for terahertz imaging that have been reported over the past decade with a discussion of the major advantages and limitations of each approach. In the second half of the chapter we discuss in more detail how terahertz imaging can be used to investigate the microstructure of pharmaceutical dosage forms. A particular focus in this context is the nondestructive measurement of the coating thickness of polymer coated tablets, both by means of high resolution offline imaging in research and development as well as for in-line quality control during production.

Notes

  1. 1.

    The signal base is the part of the signal that corresponds to terahertz wave propagation through the coating layer (between peaks) or deeper into the tablet matrix (after the last peak). Ideally, it should be flat so that peaks can be identified easily.

  2. 2.

    In all figures in this chapter the time delay is quoted in mm optical delay with \(n_\mathrm{air } = 1\).
