Springer Terahertz Technology: Fundamentals and Applications: 77 (Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering, 77)

Product Description Terahertz Technology provides an overview of Terahertz science, Terahertz photodetectors and Terahertz lasers. Readers will find a complete analysis of the use of systems-based Quantum Cascade structures to detect far infrared wavelengths, in addition to Terahertz laser principles. From the Back Cover "Terahertz Technology" presents information about Terahertz science, Terahertz photodetectors and Terahertz Lasers. A special emphasis is given to room temperature operation of long wavelength photodetectors based on novel quantum dots (Centered Defect Spherical Quantum Dots). Moreover, a complete analysis of systems based on Quantum Cascade structures to detect far infrared wavelengths is provided. Finally, the book presents Terahertz laser principles considering multi-color lasers in this range of wavelengths.
