IMPATT sub-THz generators 
Ultrafast sub-THz detectors 
Terasense sub-THz imaging systems and generators
Terasense Group Inc. is a leading manufacturer of 
  • sub-THz imaging systems,
  • generators
  • ultrafast sub-THz detectors. 
Our products have the following competitive advantages: 
  • low cost,
  • new physical principles,
  • operate at frequencies of (0,1 – 0,7 THz) where most common materials are transparent.
Our solutions are unique at the market and can offer a wide range of opportunities at comparatively low price. The advantage offered by Terasense is that terahertz waves are capable of penetrating optically opaque materials, imaging and identifying microscopic structures through spectral analysis.

Our customers all over the world can use our instruments for study and research purposes in different areas such as: hidden objects and defects identification, homeland security, medical diagnostics, petrol and oil quality control.
 We take pride in every product we devise and manufacture! This is why we continuously work on widening our product line, as well as on improving our existing creations. And, of course, we will make every effort to keep you updated on our achievements.
Dear Randy,

My name is Dmitriy Romanyuk and I representTeraSense Group Inc., a manufacturer and supplier of innovative portable sub-terahertz imagers, generators and detectors. You received this newsletter because of your relation to 38th International Conference IRMMW-THz 2013 (Mainz on the Rhine, Sep. 1 – 6), where our companies took active part; and because of your keen interest in THz-technologies or related subjects. This letter briefly describes who we are and what we can offer..
Terasense sub-THz cameras
Terasense has developed an original patent-protected technology for making a new type of semiconductor detectors for sub-THz radiation operating at room temperature.

The detectors can be combined into a compact and rather inexpensive sensor array (similar to CCD/CMOS sensors in a photo camera). The company is developing imaging applications for THz and sub-THz frequency ranges based on its sensors. The detectors proposed by Terasense have good responsivity comparable with similar products in the market meant to operate in sub-THz range (0.1 – 0.7 THz). However, unlike other detectors our items can take credit for low-cost, uniform pixel-to-pixel sensitivity (pixel-to-pixel deviation of the responsivity is less than 20%) and capability to be easily produced in large quantities in the form of 2D array thanks to compatibility of theTerasense technology with mass semiconductor manufacturing lines.

Below please find some information about our best-selling sub-THz camera:

TERA-1024 provides real-time (24 Hz) high-quality image of objects in sub-THz.
Key Specifications:
Certified frequency range: 0.02 – 0.7 THz
Pixel Number: 1024
Pixel Size: 1.5 x 1.5 mm2
Responsivity: 50 kV/W
Noise Equivalent Power: 1 nW/√Hz
Size of device: 10 cm x 10 cm x 5.5 cm.

You can buy TERA-1024 for as little as $14,900 (offer is valid till December 31st, 2013)

Other models: TERA-256 ($9,900) & TERA-4096($39,500)
are available! 
Sub-THz Generators

IMPact ionization Avalanche Transit-Time (IMPATT) diodes are high-power sub-THz radiation sources.


Key Specifications: 
  • 80 - 110 GHz frequency range (each diode is factory tuned to specifi c frequency);
  • available output power options: from 10 to 100 mW;
  • linewidth can be narrowed down to 1 MHz;
  • each diode is equipped with stable current source with DC input power 2-5 W and high-gain horn antenna;
  • TTL modulation option with 1μs rise and fall times is available;
  • requires stabilized current source, TeraSense-supplied source is highly recommended;
  • 1 year warranty period.

                Plus a variety of add-on options availaable.   
Ultrafast Sub-THz Detectors (350 ps)
Terasense proudly presents its new product: an ultrafast high-sensitive sub-THz detector (with multi-band sensitivity in the range 50 GHz — 0.7 THz). These detectors can be used for measuring of fast-changing and transient sub-THz signals. 
  • Response time - 350 ps (bandwidth not less than 3.75 GHz);
  • Responsivity: 1 V/W
  • Noise Equivalent Power: 500 pW/√Hz.
The device is compact and provided with standard SMA(F) connector. Terasense team works now on detailed characterization and improvement of our ultrafast detectors to make them even faster.
