ABSTRACT
Terahertz optoacoustics (THz-OA) combines the advantages of abundant molecular characteristic absorptions in a terahertz band and the low attenuation through ultrasonic detection. Frequency-domain THz-OA, benefiting from the compact and the low cost of a continuous-wave THz source, has been used in gas detection and sensing. However, liquid and solid detections are hard to achieve due to the sensitivity limitation of existing technologies. Here we present a high-sensitivity frequency-domain THz-OA system with customized optoacoustic cells to accomplish non-contact quantitative detection of gas, liquid, and solid samples. The relationships between signal amplitudes and sample concentration, volume and temperature are discussed separately, revealing a potential application of this technology.
