New Frontiers in Terahertz Technology
Wed, Oct 4, 2023 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT
Although unique potentials of terahertz waves for chemical identification, material characterization, biological sensing, and medical imaging have been recognized for quite a while, the relatively poor performance, higher costs, and bulky nature of current terahertz systems continue to impede their deployment in field settings. In this presentation, Professor Mona Jarrahi describes some of her team’s recent results developing fundamentally new terahertz electronic and optoelectronic components as well as imaging and spectrometry architectures to mitigate the performance limitations of existing terahertz systems. Her team’s results pave the way for compact and low-cost terahertz sources, detectors, and spectrometers that could offer numerous opportunities such as, medical imaging and diagnostics, atmospheric sensing, pharmaceutical quality control, and security screening systems.
