中文摘要：

太赫兹时域光谱仪的测量速度是一个非常重要的指标,为了提高光谱仪的测量速度需要提高延迟线的扫描速度。实验研究了扫描速度、时间常数、采样率对太赫兹时域光谱仪信号品质的影响。研究结果表明,当时间常数为10ms时,提高扫描速度不会对信号幅度造成较大改变;而当时间常数为30,100和300ms时,随着扫描速度的提高,信号幅度会迅速降低,且时间常数越大信号幅度衰减越快,因此,为了避免在提高测量速度时导致信号品质的劣化,应尽量设置较小的时间常数。另一方面,当采集一定时域长度的信号时,扫描速度越高,采集到的采样点数越少,时域波形失真越严重,因此在提高扫描速度时,不仅需要减小锁相放大器时间常数,同时还需要相应的提高采样率以避免因采集点数减少而造成信号波形的失真。该结果可为提高太赫兹时域光谱仪的测量速度提供参考。

英文摘要：

The measurement speed is an important parameter of terahertz time-domain spectroscopy （THz-TDS） instruments. To improve the measurement speed of the spectrometer we need to increase the scanning speed of the delay line. In this paper, we study the influence of the scanning speed, the time constant of lock-in amplifier and the sampling rate on the signal quality. The results show that, when the time constant equal to 10 ms, increasing the scanning speed does not cause significant changes in the amplitude of the signal. But when the time constant equal to 30, 100 and 300 ms, with the increasing of the scanning speed the signal amplitude decreases rapidly. Therefore, the time constant should be set as small as possible to avoid deterioration of signal quality. On the other hand, higher the scanning speed is, fewer data points are collected with a same time-domain length. Therefore, when the scanning speed increase, not only the time constant should be reduced, but also the sampling rate should be increased to avoid the distortion of signal waveform caused by the number reduction of data points. The conclusions can provide a reference for improving the measurement speed of THz-TDS instrument.
