“…The non-destructive evaluation of composite materials [1][2][3][14][15][16] was mostly carried out by the use of THz time-domain spectroscopy (TDS). Nevertheless, there are many other techniques based, for example, on FMCW radar [17], CW imaging using quantum cascade lasers [18], a gas laser [9], or a Gunn diode [19]. In this work, our THz TDS system is used in reflection configuration in order to obtain information about the structure of the multilayer sample including the distribution and thicknesses of particular internal layers.…”

“…Although other techniques based on a FMCW radar (Quast et al 2010) as well as CW imaging by means of quantum cascade lasers (Destic et al 2010), a gas laser (Redo-Sanchez et al 2006) or with a Gunn diode (Karpowicz et al 2005) were also studied.…”

“…Reflectance and transmittance in carbon fiber sheets, however, depend on the orientation of the fibers with respect to the polarization of the THz radiation: Not unlike in a wire-grid polarizer, THz radiation which is polarized perpendicularly to the fibers experiences a higher transmittance than for parallel polarization. The anisotropic THz characteristics of carbon fibers have been utilized to examine heat damage 15 as well as delamination 16 at or close to the surface. There are numerous further examples of THz methodologies and applications in NDT of composites.…”
