Getting over, or perhaps straight through, the T-ray wall

  Killam Scholarship Supports Research in Experimental Chip Design  Between microwave and infrared wavelengths is a tantalizing portion of the spectrum known as terahertz (THz), T-rays or submillimetre wavelengths. Ranging between 300 gigahertz to 3 terahertz this part of the spectrum is compelling for researchers because it has an array of potentially useful properties that […]
