Junliang Dong, a U of A assistant professor of electrical engineering and computer science, received a prestigious NSF CAREER Award for $500,000 to develop the terahertz imaging technology for ...

Columbia physics grad student Lucia Rondini explains the surprising truth about the quantum vacuum—it’s not empty, but “fizzy” with particles constantly appearing and disappearing.

Intense interest in ultra-high-speed, low-latency, and large-capacity wireless communication has accelerated the development of terahertz (THz) antenna systems for sixth-generation (6G) networks. This ...

Scientists have unveiled a computational design for a terahertz metasurface biosensor that combines five distinct materials—graphene, MXene, tungsten disulfide, gold, and copper—into a single ...

A new analytical approach combining terahertz spectroscopy with machine learning could support faster, non-destructive monitoring of active pharmaceutical ingredient content. Researchers have combined ...

Vision Matching 2026, a matching event connecting faculty members and graduate students involved in the Innovative-Life Society Visionary Initiative with organizations participating in the Super Smart ...

You may have heard the term "terahertz waves" at an airport security checkpoint. Some security scanners that see through clothing to detect explosives or drugs already use this type of electromagnetic ...

High-frequency waves classified as terahertz occupy a relatively underused region of the electromagnetic spectrum between infrared light and microwaves. Researchers have long recognized their unique ...

Terahertz waves have major potential in high-speed communication, imaging, security screening and sensing, but are still underused due to complex and bulky systems. UCLA researchers integrated ...
