The 3D characterization of single-cycle Terahertz (THz) pulses in its transverse and temporal dimensions is presented. The high fields and short wavelengths of THz pulses make them an intriguing prospect for novel accelerator technologies. Effective application for free-space THz pulses requires high beam quality and concomitant measuring techniques. The combination of conventional electro-optic sampling to measure the temporal profile and detectors like microbolometer focal plane arrays to measure the transverse profile does not capture the correlations that can arise in single-cycle THz pulses. To capture these correlations, a modified version electro-optic sampling using a CCD is implemented. THz pulses generated by optical rectification in organic crystals are measured using this technique and their spatiotemporal correlations characterized.
