Results from this research will be useful in applications such as quality testing and non-destructive inspection of drugs and foods containing components that absorb electromagnetic waves in the sub-terahertz range as well as submillimeter astronomy and high-speed and high-capacity communication over short distances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Results of this research were published on November 2 (Thu) in the electronic version of the European Scientific Journal \u201cNanophotonics.\u201d This research and development work was supported by the MIC\/SCOPE #195006001.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>For more information, please visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hamamatsu.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.hamamatsu.com<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hamamatsu Photonics has succeeded in producing terahertz waves at a wavelength of 450 micrometers (\u03bcm: micro or \u03bc is one millionth) in the terahertz range which is the world\u2019s longest wavelength available [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":36563,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1106],"tags":[640,728,822,568],"class_list":["post-36562","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-laser-optics","tag-laser","tag-laser-applications","tag-photonics","tag-quality-inspection"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.7 -
