An efficient source of terahertz radiation is developed
The joint institute of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the University of Colorado at Boulder (JILA) has developed a laser-based source of terahertz radiation that is unusually efficient and less prone to damage than similar systems. The technology might be useful in applications such as detecting trace gases or imaging weapons in security screening.
