Terahertz Active Photonic Crystals for Condensed Gas Sensing

Terahertz Active Photonic Crystals for Condensed Gas Sensing

The terahertz (THz) spectral region, covering frequencies from 1 to 10 THz, is highly interesting for chemical sensing. The energy of rotational and vibrational transitions of molecules lies within this frequency range. Therefore, chemical fingerprints can be derived, allowing for a simple detection...
