Terahertz
 
The generation and application of terahertz radiation bears great potential in medical diagnostics, product quality control and security screening. Two of the most important methods of generating and detecting terahertz radiation employ lasers that TOPTICA makes. These are:


Properties of terahertz radiation:
  • Also known as far-infrared or sub-millimeter waves
  • Frequency range 0.3 – 10 THz
  • Wavelength range 30 µm – 1 mm
  • Non-ionizing, unlike X-rays
  • Absorption properties very different from that of visible light
  • Absorbed by water and many light-transparent organic substances
  • Able to penetrate clothing, paper, and many other opaque materials
