Terahertz electromagnetic waves occupy a middle ground between electronics waves, like microwave and radio waves, and photonics waves, such as infrared and UV waves. For example, mobile phones use ...

Non-destructive micron-resolution imaging of cochlea lays groundwork for better hearing loss diagnosis For the first time, ...

A simple tweak to the usual setup is all that is needed to enhance a spectroscopy technique that uses waves in the terahertz ...

The work entitled “Numerical study of terahertz radiation from N-polar AlGaN/GaN HEMT under asymmetric boundaries” was published on Frontiers of Optoelectronics (published on Mar. 14 ...

A startup debuting at ISC West is bringing the futuristic technology out of the lab and into the field for enterprise security applications ...

The Japan-based company is offering two products: THz photomultiplier tube (THz PMT) modules, and THz image intensifiers (THz I.I.), which can detect THz wave pulse signals at high speed and with high ...

TU Wien develops terahertz radiation sources At the same time, however, Michael Jaidl was conducting research at the Institute of Photonics at TU Wien on laser beams in the terahertz range, i.e ...

Terahertz radiation, which lies between the microwave and infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, is highly sensitive to water content in tissues and, unlike X-rays, it is non-ionizing and ...

The emitted terahertz radiation is normal to the surface, and thus its polarization cannot be controlled by tuning the polarization of the light pulses. “A material that produces an in-plane ...

The UCLA research team demonstrated the effectiveness of their system using terahertz (THz) radiation. Using a 3D printer, they fabricated a two-layer diffractive structure that successfully ...

Terahertz technology seems set to become important in security screening and the pharmaceutical industry. The ultimate solution for airport security would be a system that not only tells security ...

In a collaboration between process engineering and photonics at TU Wien (Vienna), this problem has now been solved using a very special type of light source: terahertz radiation from a quantum ...
