TeraSpectra

ARP’s terahertz spectrometer, TeraSpectra is a turn key spectrometer. Time domain measurements can be conducted over a time span of sub-Pico seconds to a few tens of Pico-seconds with an equivalent frequency range of 0.1 to ~30 THz. This wide range allows characterizing a number of molecular events important for biomedical and materials research. The spectrometer applications may be developed in diagnostics, pharmaceutical, and related areas. For additional information see ARP technical notes at https://arphotonics.net/technicalnotes.htm. Specification summary is given below. For more information please: Email to info@arphotonics.net The cost of TeraSpectra is lower with higher performance because of its proprietary next gen technology. A high power source enables probing a wide variety of specimens thus expanding the scope of the spectrometer. High signal to noise ratio. High sensitivity, ~100 femtomol. Turn-key platform. Collaborative investigations available. ARP’s terahertz spectrometer is a novel technology having applications in biological, biomedical, pharmaceutical, and other life science areas. Terahertz technology provides the next generation capabilities, overcoming the so-called terahertz gap, with new applications in this spectrum range. ARP received the prestigious NASA TechBrief’s nano-50 award.

Terahertz Nanoscanning Spectrometer and 3D Imager

ARP has announced an integrated scanning spectrometer. Terahertz time-domain spectrometer is a highly sensitive instrument for molecular investigations. Adding functionalities such as sub-surface scanning and 3D imaging makes this instrument more versatile for various applications development by a single platform. ARP still keeps the price within a reasonable range by means of its proprietary dendrimer dipole excitation (DDE) continuous wave (CW) terahertz source.
