THz applications & new materials

THz applications & new materials

  1. Having both efficient sources and detectors at hand, we also focus on THz applications. Of particular interest are spectroscopic applications, in particular gases, organic compounds and semiconductors. Recent work includes the study of resolution limits of Terahertz time domain systems at the example of oil and gasoline spectroscopy as well as their mixtures and aged/oxidized oils.
  1. Our capabilities and available laser systems are used for studying and new materials for THz devices and applications. This includes, e.g., spintronic materials and perovskites.
