Hyperspectral terahertz microscopy via nonlinear ghost imaging

We experimentally demonstrate Time-Resolved Nonlinear Ghost Imaging and its ability to perform hyperspectral imaging in difficult-to-access wavelength regions, such as the Terahertz domain. We operate by combining nonlinear quadratic sparse generation and nonlinear detection in the Fourier plane. We demonstrate that traditional time-slice approaches are prone to essential limitations in near-field imaging due to space-time coupling, which is overcome by our technique. As a proof-of-concept of our implementation, we show that we can provide experimental access to hyperspectral images completely unrecoverable through standard fixed-time methods.
