摘要: Organic acids are important components in determining fruit taste, and it is necessary to develop rapid analysis methods for them. A simple and effective method based on laser-engraved free-standing terahertz (THz) metamaterials has been developed for rapid analysis of fruit acids. Compared with traditional fabrication methods for THz metamaterials, laser direct writing technology was employed for fabricating the Cu-foil-based THz devices in this research, which is time-saving, cost-effective, and high-throughput. To realize effective fabrication of metamaterials, proper fabrication parameters were selected according to morphology and spectral characterization. Numerical analysis was performed to reveal the fundamental mechanism of THz sensing based on metamaterials. Furthermore, experimental results indicate that fruit acid with a concentration of 0.1 mg L-1 can be successfully distinguished, which is quick and simple compared with traditional acid-base titration. The proposed strategy demonstrates great potential for rapid in situ analysis of flavor components in food products.
