THz APPLICATIONS

Terahertz (THz) waves are electromagnetic waves located between infrared radiation and radio/millimeter waves, offering unique properties:

  • Non-ionizing radiation is safe;
  • Molecular absorption in the terahertz range allows for the analysis of gases and solid chemical compositions;
  • The radiation is sensitive to water absorption, making it suitable for moisture measurement;
  • Capable of transmitting large amounts of data over short distances (<200 m), beyond the frequencies used in 5G;
  • THz waves can penetrate various materials, such as plastics, foams, fabrics, ceramics, composites, and even ultra-thin films.

At our institute, we develop imaging, communication, and spectroscopy systems based on the most sensitive THz detectors. We specialize in a wide range of frequencies, from 0.1 THz to 4.75 THz:

  • Development of THz sources, sensors, and receivers using commercially available semiconductor chip technologies (CMOS, SiGe, GaAs, etc.);
  • High-frequency circuit (IC) design;
  • Creation of optical components in the THz range;
  • Feasibility studies for various THz applications;
  • Prototype development for applied systems.

We are open to your ideas and ready to leverage our technological know-how for the development of new projects in various fields.
