Funded Activity Summary

Unleashing terahertz radiation through the marriage of solid state laser and photonic crystal technology. Terahertz (THz) radiation holds enormous potential to improve the security and well being of Australians, but its application has been largely restricted to the laboratory. By using photonic crystals (structures responsible for shimmer of opals and butterfly wings) this project will generate a new technology enabling its practical and widespread application.
