The Terahertz frequency range between 300 GHz and 3 THz, located between radio frequencies and the far infrared, offers a vast amount of untapped bandwidth for future wireless communication systems. Besides wireless, emerging THz applications include material sensing, medical imaging, high precision radar measurements, and security screening. Common to all THz applications ist he need for low-cost, high-performing and robust components which can be integrated into commercial systems. Electronic THz chips based on silicon germanium, RF-CMOS and the more exotic semiconductor indium phosphide are currently being developed, with promising performance and energy efficiency. Complementary optoelectronic components such as photomixers and uni-traveling carrier photodiodes exhibit extreme bandwidth in THz generation and detection based on short optical laser pulses and optical wavelength mixing.
