Abstract
We demonstrate a semi-confocal THz imaging system based on a THz gas laser operating at 2.52 THz (118 μm) with power up to tens of milliwatts. Our ultimate goal is the development of a fully confocal THz microscope. We discuss the stability of the system and present THz images obtained on different objects to illustrate the potential of the system.
