THz Light Source BWO THz BWO THz Signal Source Product Description:
The terahertz light source BWO terahertz BWO terahertz signal source, commonly known as the backward wave tube, is a classic terahertz source. It is a microwave electron tube that uses the interaction between an electron beam and a slow wave line to generate oscillations. Currently, only Microtech BWO has the ability to achieve broadband tuning and high-power output above 0.1Hz. Therefore, it can be applied to the local oscillator of low-noise heterodyne receivers, in low background radio astronomy observations, remote sensing of comets, Earth, and other planetary atmospheres, to understand the structure and evolution of the Milky Way and its nearby extragalactic media through high-resolution observations of important matter molecules.
The Microtech QS1-260 series terahertz source starts at 160GHz and can reach a maximum frequency of 2100GHz. The highest fundamental frequency power in this series can reach 50mW, suitable for applications such as transmission, reflection, and imaging. This system offers multiple different models that can be tuned in different spectral ranges. QS1-260 BWO can be pre assembled into MS-0.6 magnetic systems. In addition, the operation of QS1-260 system also requires high-voltage power supply, such as VR-6M, and a water cooling system.
