Abstract
Recently, terahertz (THz) computed tomography (CT) has emerged as a possible effective technique for 3D structural information detection. However, THz-CT is difficult to be applied to high refractive index object, due to the severe refraction phenomenon occurred during the acquisition of raw data. We propose a novel experimental procedure to solve this problem. Including the use of a sink filled with liquid whose refractive index is close to the sample, and a correction algorithm to eliminate the noise of liquid. The proposed method is applied to the high-density polyethylene samples of different shapes.
