Abstract

The demand for high speed Terahertz measurement devices for industrial and research applications is growing rapidly. From plant biology to nondestructive testing in the automotive industry, there is a long list of applications demanding rapid scanning of femtosecond pulses. We present a novel approach to speed up the repetition rate control by a factor of 10 compared to conventional approaches using electro-optical means . Hence, we have demonstrated repetition rate changes of 100 kHz in less than 1 ms. This increase in speed enables novel applications in Terahertz spectroscopy which will be presented.
