TeraHertz: New opportunities for industry
Special Focus Session: THz Materials Measurements
3-5 February 2015
Target audience
R&D managers, engineers and scientists seeking a comprehensive update on TeraHertz technologies and applications, a disruptively evolving field.A general background in science & technology is sufficient.
Overview
TeraHertz (THz), the frequencies between electronics and optics, was until recently the last unexploited part of the electro- magnetic spectrum. The harnessing of THz-based technologies has the potential of impacting globally a vast number of industries, like both electronics in the 70’s and optics in the 80’s did.THz applications span over a wide array of fields, including:
- Quality Control and Non-destructive testing
- Surface analysis
- Security
- Chemical and Bio-Medical analysis
- Telecommunications
This year’s edition will focus on THz materials measurements and applications.
Objectives
- Learn about the latest developments around material measurements towards TeraHertz
- Discover new application opportunities for THz material measurements
- Network with specialists in this emerging field
Topics and Hands-on
- THz test & measurements instrumentations: Network Analyzers
- THz solid state sources
- THz on-chip measurements and material measurements fixtures
- THz photonic measurements
- Application opportunities of THz material measurements
