Single point terahertz imagery of 2D objects is demonstrated by exploiting the broadband nature of ultrafast terahertz wave in a coherent optical computing setup. In the devised imagery, a collimated terahertz beam is illuminated on an object and the scattered fields are measured through a spatial mask at the Fourier plane in a 4-f terahertz time-domain spectroscope. This arrangement allows conversion of radial spatial frequencies of the object to the temporal spectrum of the pulse. Hence, a 2D image stored in the terahertz waveforms can be readily obtained.
