The study demonstrates that millimetre‑wave guided modes—known as Sommerfeld waves—can be efficiently launched and transported along simple metallic wires at 100 GHz and 300 GHz. By inserting a straightforward differential phase plate in front of the wire, the researchers achieved a theoretical…
Terahertz (THz) imaging exploits the unique ability of 0.3–10 THz radiation to penetrate a wide range of dielectric materials while providing spectroscopic fingerprints of many chemical species. The reviewed work demonstrates that, beyond conventional two‑dimensional transmission or reflection…
An in-depth editorial guide to Terahertz biophotonics as a tool for studies of dielectric and spectral properties of biological tissues and liquids, its scientific context, terahertz contribution, applications, and collaboration potential in Biomedical Imaging.
The study demonstrates that the Shape‑from‑Focus (SFF) algorithm, traditionally used in optical microscopy, can be successfully applied to real‑time terahertz (THz) imaging systems to generate sharp two‑dimensional images and depth maps of thin or layered objects. By recording a rapid stack of…
Terahertz (THz) technology has long been recognised for its unique ability to penetrate non‑conductive, often opaque materials and reveal hidden structures without causing damage. Yet the potential of THz imaging for rapid, on‑line non‑destructive testing (NDT) and quality control has remained…
The work demonstrates, for the first time, a practical, single‑beam terahertz (THz) phase‑retrieval imaging system that operates in a reflection configuration at a continuous‑wave frequency of 0.287 THz. By recording the reflected intensity at 27 axial positions and combining the signals from two…

Executive Summary This research introduces a novel algorithm—Multiplane Iterative Phase Retrieval with Inpainting (SBMIR‑I)—that corrects for over‑exposure in terahertz (THz) diffraction imaging. By automatically “inpainting” saturated regions in the measured intensity data, the algorithm…
Terahertz (THz) imaging has been demonstrated as a powerful, non‑contact, non‑ionizing technique for probing the internal structure of cultural heritage objects, particularly those mounted on metal supports where conventional optical, X‑ray, or infrared methods fail. In this study, a…
The study demonstrates a fully integrated, real‑time terahertz computed tomography platform that can acquire full‑field images at 25 frames per second, reconstruct a three‑dimensional volume, and automatically process that data to reveal detailed internal morphology within a single minute. By…

In this collaborative article between Lytid, IMS and Noctylio, we explore the application of terahertz (THz) technology in tomography to create 3D reconstructions in real time. The experimental setup is based on a latest generation micro-bolometric camera with 240×320 pixels, equipped with an anti-reflective coated lens developed by Lytid, to record the projection images of … Read more
