Résumé

In this work, we present a simple method to improve the spatial uniformity of two- dimensional electro-optical imaging of terahertz (THz) beams. In this system, near-field THz images are captured by fully illuminating a sample using conventional optical microscope objectives. Un- fortunately, due to the linear relationship between the optical probe power and the measured THz electric field, any spatial variation in probe intensity translates directly into a variation of the recorded THz electric field. Using a single normalized background frame information map as a calibration tool prior to recording a sequence of THz images, we show a full recovery of a two-dimensional flat field for various combinations of magnification factors. Our results suggest that the implementation of dynamic intensity profile correction is a promising avenue for real-time electro-optical imaging of THz beams.
