Ubiquitous Terahertz Photonics: enabling technology for the future imaging systems and wireless communications
EF 2017-18
Résumé
Conquering the terahertz region of the electromagnetic spectrum promises to bring
about a variety of game changing solutions for many important applications. The
Chair will pursue fundamental understanding and practical implementations of two
primary technologies. The first one is THz wireless communications. THz waves
promise much faster communication links than existing wireless devices. This will
open new frontiers in information consumption, distribution and processing. The
second one is non-destructive imaging. THz waves offer unique opportunities in
imaging and chemical characterization as many materials are transparent to the
THz light, have spectral signatures, and non-ionizing THz radiation is safe for
humans.
