The terahertz near-field high-throughput material physical property testing system(NFTHZ)integrates a wavelength-tunable terahertz free electron laser(THz-FEL).The instrument uses a linear accelerator with tunable electron energy of 10-18 MeV as the injector.A pre-bunched electron beam can be formed by adjusting the longitudinal/temporal structure of the driving laser.By matching the relationship between the bunching factor,energy of the electron beam at the undulator entrance and the K value of undulator,a terahertz free electron laser with megawatts peak power and an adjustable center wavelength of 0.5-5.0 THz can be achieved.The microwave system provides high-power microwave electric field,accelerating structure and microwave amplitude and phase control system to accelerate the electron beam to the target energy.This article will introduce the development of the microwave system of the NFTHZ facility and the construction progress of the electron linear accelerator.
