Abstract
The Terahertz (THz) region of the electromagnetic spectrum,
spanning the range between 100 GHz and 30 THz, has recently
enjoyed a renaissance due to technological developments
in source and detector components. With the
development of THz instrumentation, applications of THz
spectroscopy and imaging for quality control of food products
have expanded in scope and improved in performance. This
article gives an overview of the fundamentals of THz technology
and a comprehensive review of applications of THz time
domain spectroscopy and imaging for food quality and control.
Technical challenges and future outlook for these emerging
techniques are also discussed.
