Abstract

Recent breakthroughs in nanotechnologies are pushing up the efficiency of compact semiconductor laser sources and detectors of radiation in the terahertz (THz) range of the electromagnetic spectrum. At these frequencies, many molecules have their spectroscopic fingerprints due to rotational and vibrational transitions. Hence, long-dreamed killer applications of THz photonics such as sensing, imaging, diagnostics, coherent spectroscopy in strategic fields like medicine, microelectronics, petrochemical industry, forensic science, cultural heritage are coming true.
