This project proposes novel low-cost miniature devices for spectral, spatial and temporal manipulation of terahertz waves realised using a unified platform based on a single material and fabrication technology sufficiently generic to span the entire very broad terahertz band. It inherently overcomes the most hindering issue of current terahertz instruments relating to the limited span of the spectrum each tool can cover and the high costs associated with increasing this span; removing the need for making spectral band compromises in the design of future tools. The intended outcome is a platform for terahertz spectroscopic imaging, target recognition, detection of chemical composition of objects, and future high-bandwidth communications.

该项目提出了一种新颖的低成本微型设备，用于太赫兹波的光谱，空间和时间操作，使用基于单一材料和制造技术的统一平台实现，该技术足以跨越整个非常宽的太赫兹波段。它固有地克服了当前太赫兹仪器的最大障碍问题，即每个工具可以覆盖的频谱范围有限以及与增加该范围相关的高成本;消除了在未来工具的设计中进行光谱带妥协的需要。预期的成果是太赫兹光谱成像，目标识别，物体化学成分检测和未来高带宽通信的平台。
