We demonstrate high-quality non-destructive imaging using a broadband terahertz quantum cascade laser source based on Cerenkov difference-frequency generation. The source exhibited ultra-broadband terahertz emission spectra, as well as a single-lobed Gaussian-like far-field pattern at -30 °C. These features allowed us to build a compact imaging system with a high spatial resolution, from which a nearly theoretical minimum beam spot size was obtained. As a result, we achieve well-resolved, high-contrast images of objects obscured by opaque materials. We also achieved terahertz imaging with the THz DFG-QCL operated at room temperature.
