My Note: Anytime Dr. Igor Carron, mentions a topic, people listen and take notice, so I was very pleased he commented today on his cutting-edge, highly regarded blog, Nuit Blanche, about the recent stories found here (which I repost below). Thank you Dr. Carron for mentioning Terahertz Technology.

Of Paradigm Shifts and Regime Changes
One of the reasons some technologies do not become fully mature or simply die off comes from a competition effect. If you are developing a technology based on the fact that some sensors are expensive, such is the case in some regimes for compressive sensing, then you are in a competition with not just similar technologies (different sampling techniques) but also with technologies that aim for a much cheaper sensor. Case in point, Randy pointed out to us this past week, the emergence of two or three CMOS based solutions for Terahertz imaging:
- Revisiting TeraTop-TeraTOP Aims to Revolutionize THz Imaging
- Exclusive Comments from Dr. Ken O at the University of Texas, Dallas,regarding CMOS and Terahertz
- New Research Could Mean Cellphones That Can See Through Walls
- A Cheap Terahertz Camera
