Researchers pursue plasmonics and photonics technology for optical improvements
Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010Maier has demonstrated plasmon waveguides on a silicon platform operating in the telecom band, and under AFOSR support he has realized some of the first plasmonic devices operating at THz frequencies.
Northrop Grumman Doubles Frequency of Fastest Reported Integrated Circuit
Thursday, May 27th, 2010Northrop Grumman Corporation (NYSE:NOC) has set a new electronics performance record with a Terahertz Monolithic Integrated Circuit (TMIC) operating at 0.67 terahertz (THz), or 0.67 trillion cycles per second.
Plasmonic promises: First observation of plasmarons in graphene
Thursday, May 20th, 2010Scientists have discovered that composite particles called plasmarons play a vital role in the electronic structure of graphene, crystalline sheets of carbon just one atom thick. Their frequencies may reach 100 terahertz —much higher than the frequency of conventional electronics in today’s computers, which typically operate at about a few GHz.

Friday, May 14th, 2010“The process is ideal for applications in mm-wave frequency transceivers, as well as Terahertz imaging systems”
TUNABLE TERAHERTZ WIRE LASER: CLEO/QELS research news
Tuesday, May 11th, 2010Scientists at MIT have combined several technologies to obtain a versatile source of THz light.
New ‘Metamaterial’ Device May Lead to See-Through Cameras and Scanners
Thursday, May 6th, 2010Devices that can mimic Superman’s X-ray vision and see through clothing, walls or human flesh are the stuff of comic book fantasy, but a group of scientists at Boston University (BU) has taken a step toward making such futuristic devices a reality.
Reveal-all scanner for works of art
Monday, May 3rd, 2010Painted-over murals were thought to be irretrievably lost because conventional methods are seldom suitable to rendering the hidden works visible without causing damage. Research scientists now aim to reveal the secrets of these paintings non-destructively using terahertz beams.
T-Ray Science, Inc. Grants Technology License to Toptica Photonics, Inc.
Thursday, April 29th, 2010Part of Toptica’s portfolio is offering customers a THz Standard Package plus Spectroscopy Kit product which uses a coherent detection technique for continuous wave (“cw”) THz signals.
