电磁频谱的太赫兹区域提供了相当多的开发机会。源和相干检测技术的最新进展使得广泛的应用取得了进展。本文回顾了该领域的历史发展，总结了系统技术的现状，并概述了当前的一些系统应用，包括医学成像。讨论了当今技术的局限性，并考虑了一些未来可能的应用。
The terahertz region of the electromagnetic spectrum offers considerable opportunities for exploitation. Recent advances in source and coherent-detection technology have enabled advances to be made in a wide range of applications. This article reviews the historical development of the field, summarizes the current state of system technology and outlines a number of current system applications, including medical imaging. The limitations of present-day technology are discussed and some future possible applications are considered.
