• ITMO Scientists Achieve Record-Breaking Efficiency of Terahertz Radiation in Liquids

  …Terahertz (THz) radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation with a frequency spectrum between the infrared and microwave ranges. It corresponds to light wavelengths from 3 millimeters to 30 micrometers (or from 0.1 to 100 THz). Oscillations typical for heavy molecules (including organic ones) and movements of crystals’ atoms lie in this range. Moreover, unlik…
