Abstract

A Terahertz Chemical Microscope has been proposed and developed for the visualization of chemical reactions in the solutions. To visualize chemical reactions with higher imaging quality and higher scanning speed, it is required to improve the contrast of the images. In this study, we applied an adaptive filter to the TCM system and evaluate the imaging quality qualitatively. The contrasts without filter and with filter are 0.33 and 0.74 respectively. This result shows that our system with the filter could improve the imaging quality without losing the scanning speed of the microscope.
