Terahertz

Terahertz is the last unexplored frontier of the electromagnetic spectrum. Through its subsidiary, Picometrix is a leader of robust terahertz instrumentation with its T-Ray® product line.

Terahertz radiation can be used to image through materials yielding high spatial resolution and has the ability to resolve both time and amplitude information. It is safe for humans and can provide spectroscopic information, as well as produce images.

Terahertz has the potential to be applied to many applications including: on-line non-destructive testing for quality control of products and packaging for Industrial markets; weapons and explosives detection for Homeland Security and Defense markets; topical imaging for the Medical market; quality control of external skins on space vehicles for the Aerospace and Military markets and many more.
