Absolute Terahertz Power/Energy Meter

 

A new USB version of our successful absolute power meter support unit is now available,

with continuous FFT display of noise and dynamic as well as digital readout of power levels.

Terahertz Power

The system is comprised of two parts:

  1. The power meter head.
  2. The support unit, based on a National Instruments USB-6211 data acquisition module.

Specifications:

  • Measures power in free-space beams
  • Displays power on a computer
  • Fully automatic absolute calibration using electrical film heating under software control
  • Frequency dependent window loss correction
  • Accuracy better than 10%
  • NEP typically 5µW/Hz½
  • For energy measurement the typical NEJ is about 1µJ
  • Broad Band: 30GHz to 3THz and beyond
  • Sensitive Area greater than 30mm in diameter
  • The Head

    The head is a photo-acoustic detector using a closed air-cell and a pressure transducer.

    Calibration is provided by ohmic heating of a thin metal film within the cell.

  • The Support Unit

    The support unit is based around a National Instruments USB-6211 data acquisition module.

    Additional electronics have been added to provide film heating for calibration and to amplify

    the signal from the head's microphone pressure sensor. The compiled software, written in

    LabVIEW, implements a lock-in amplifier and displays the microwave power.

  • Version 3.2.2

    This version can be used with the latest Microsoft and National Instruments software.  It is considered a late beta version because it is currently not possible to change the Transmission Data by copying in an updated file.
