Abstract
We present a plasmonic photoconductive terahertz focal-plane array that can provide spatial amplitude and phase, ultrafast temporal and spectral information simultaneously with a high imaging speed. Utilizing the high dynamic range (> 60 dB) and wide bandwidth (> 3 THz) in all focal-plane array pixels, we demonstrate super-resolution imaging on partially-etched high-resistivity silicon objects and reconstruct both the 2D shape and depth with a 16-fold enhancement in the space-bandwidth product and an effective number of pixels larger than 1-kilo pixels. We also demonstrate a 16-fps terahertz time-domain video, which can be further super-resolved by a holographic algorithm.
