Abstract
Utilizing plasmonic nanoantennas capable of concentrating light in the infrared spectrum and serving as terahertz antennas, we have engineered a terahertz focal-plane array (THz-FPA) suitable for integration into terahertz pulsed imaging systems. Comprising 64 pixels, this detector array enables scanning of a 5 cm line width. With its rapid scanning capability and expansive field-of-view, the THz-FPA has the potential to elevate terahertz pulsed imaging systems beyond mere metrology tools, rendering them high-throughput instruments applicable in industrial environments for diverse non-destructive evaluation purposes.
