Terahertz TDS: The Pulse Driving Industrial Innovation
Wed, May 28, 2025 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM EDT
Join us for an in-depth exploration of terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (terahertz TDS) and its transformative impact on industrial applications. This webinar will cover the fundamental principles of terahertz TDS while showcasing the latest advancements in Menlo Systems’ cutting-edge solutions, now featuring up to four times more terahertz power, 5× faster scanning, and improved detection capabilities with a dynamic range of up to 110 dB and a bandwidth of up to 6.5 THz. Through real-world case studies, it will be demonstrated how these advancements elevate quality control, material characterization, and nondestructive testing (NDT) across industries. Learn how terahertz TDS complements traditional NDT techniques such as near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, x-ray imaging, and ultrasonic testing — delivering deeper insights with unmatched precision and efficiency. Prince Bawuah, Ph.D., will explore practical applications in pharmaceutical manufacturing, semiconductor testing, coatings inspection, ceramics assessment, and electric vehicle battery electrode analysis, among others. Attendees will gain actionable insights into how terahertz TDS helps reduce operational costs, enhance product quality, and optimize industrial processes.

Closing Connection Gaps through Free Space Optical Communications — With Tom Chaffee, Jim Olson, and Wayne Knox
Free space optical communication could offer high speed connectivity without the need of optical fibers. That's where groups like Attochron come in. They are actively working to develop the next generation of light waves for free space optical communications. Using short coherence length optical sources, including ultrashort pulsed lasers, they believe they have found a way to overcome the hurdles holding these systems back from hitting the mainstream. On this episode, we are joined by Tom Chaffee, founder and CEO of Attochron; Jim Olson, senior VP of sales and marketing; and Wayne H. Knox, professor of Optics at the University of Rochester and consultant at Attochron.
