The current proposal aims to improve and thus increase the value of a new invention developed at the INRS for detecting terahertz (THz) radiation, based on spectral domain interferometry (SDI). THz sources and detectors have many important potential applications in the areas of spectroscopy, detection, and security. For example, the low energy photons of THz radiation can be safely used on humans for security purposes at airports, to detect weapons and explosives. THz radiation can also be used to study the vibrational modes of several biological and chemical molecules, since these modes have energies corresponding to THz photon energies.

目前的提案旨在改进并因此增加INRS开发的用于基于谱域干涉测量法（SDI）检测太赫兹（THz）辐射的新发明的价值。太赫兹辐射源和探测器在光谱学、探测和安全等领域有着重要的应用前景。例如，太赫兹辐射的低能量光子可以安全地用于机场的安全目的，以检测武器和爆炸物。太赫兹辐射也可以用来研究几种生物和化学分子的振动模式，因为这些模式具有与太赫兹光子能量相对应的能量。
