Encore files patent for THz CW device




United States Patent and Trademark Office has received an application no. 20130200263, on August 08, 2013, by Emcore Corporation, titled as "TERAHERTZ FREQUENCY DOMAIN SPECTROMETER WITH DISCRETE COARSE AND FINE TUNING" for the registration of patent.
Inventors: Logan; Ronald T.; (Pasadena, CA) ; Demers; Joseph R.; (North Hollywood, CA)


Assignee: Emcore Corporation
Albuquerque
NM
According to the abstract released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "An apparatus for analyzing, identifying or imaging an target including first and second laser beams coupled to a pair of photoconductive switches to produce CW signals in one or more bands in a range of frequencies greater than 100 GHz focused on and transmitted through or reflected from the target; and a detector for acquiring spectral information from signals received from the target and using a multi-spectral heterodyne process to generate an electrical signal representative of some characteristics of the target. The lasers are tuned to different frequencies and a frequency shifter in the path of one laser beam allows the terahertz beam to be finely adjusted in one or more selected frequency bands."
The Patent was filed on March 14, 2013 under application No. 20130200263
