Australian scientists and engineers require immediate access to frontier T-ray (terahertz radiation) technology to solve pressing current problems in semiconductor nanostructures and emerging problems in fields as diverse as biophysics and national security. Recent innovations now make practical the production of bursts of terahertz radiation by applying ultrafast optical pulses to photoconductive or electro-optic media, facilitating unparalleled time-resolved spectroscopy and imaging. The state-of-the-art equipment to be purchased and installed at Wollongong will enhance the existing excellent terahertz infrastructure (unique spectrometers, optically-pumped molecular laser) and efficiently service researchers in the dynamic Sydney (UTS, UNSW) - Wollongong (UoW) - Canberra (ANU) corridor.

澳大利亚的科学家和工程师需要立即接触到前沿的T-射线(太赫兹辐射)技术，以解决半导体纳米结构中的紧迫当前问题，以及生物物理和国家安全等多个领域中的新问题。最近的创新通过将超快光脉冲应用于光导或电光介质，使太赫兹辐射爆发的产生变得实用，从而促进了无与伦比的时间分辨光谱和成像。将在卧龙岗购买和安装的最先进的设备将增强现有的优秀太赫兹基础设施(独特的光谱仪、光泵分子激光器)，并有效地为动态悉尼(UTS，新南威尔士)-卧龙岗(UOW)-堪培拉(ANU)走廊的研究人员提供服务。
