Terahertz (THz) homodyne and direct spectroscopic images of low-absorbing materials packaged between up to six layers of a cotton fabric are recorded at 0.3 and 0.6 THz at room temperature. More than two orders of magnitude higher dynamic range is revealed due to the detection in a homodyne scheme, which is realized using paper sheets as a phase-shifting mechanism. It is demonstrated that the homodyne approach can serve as a convenient imaging tool to identify and resolve objects manifesting low absorbance of THz radiation, such as paper tissue, nitrile, and low-density polyethylene concealed in a textile environment.
