Abstract

The present invention provides a solid state intra-cavity absorption spectrometer comprising a solid-state gain device interspersed in an array of oscillators in a chamber to produce a wide area coherent high power source of Terahertz radiation. The source is then partitioned into two separate regions, one having a gain medium and one having a sample chamber that can be held a different pressure and is chemically isolated from the gain region thereby forming an intra-cavity absorption spectrometer.
