Synopsis

The field of THz Science and Technology is growing at a tremendous speed, as evidenced by the exponentially increasing number of publications in this field and by the strongly increasing number of patents and applications. This topical meeting provides a platform on which the latest results in the generation, detection and use of THz radiation in science and technology can be presented and discussed. The meeting is for senior scientists and (under)graduate students alike. There will be two 45 minute-long Masterclasses, one given by Peter Uhd Jepsen, the other by Abdulhakem Elezzabi, which are especially aimed at the undergraduate/graduate student level.

Topics

THz sources (QCL's, FELs, synchrotrons, etc.)
Detection of THz radiation (quantum dots, single photon detectors, time-gated, etc.)
THz plasmonics, metamaterials, photonic crystals
THz imaging
THz microscopy and microspectroscopy
THz integrated optics
THz applications (security, telecom, etc.)
THz-matter interaction (chemistry, solid-state physics, ultrafast spectroscopy, biology etc.)
Interactions between high-power THz radiation and matter
Remote sensing of gases and chemical / biological agents
