Physics of coupling of resonating structures has been investigated for many decades, yet still new effects are discovered due to the better understanding of the underlying processes and due to the shift of the focus from the classical resonators to the quantum objects, to meta-atoms and to the nanoscale in general. The well-known effect in atomic physics of the electromagnetically induced...
The so-called "terahertz gap" is gradually being filled with new compact devices and effective solutions for the detection and emission of radiation. In particular, the development of field-effect-transistors (FET) is starting to play a significant role in this process [1, 2] and had demonstrated in applications together with pulse free electron lasers and gas laser [3, 4] and fast...
The non-ionizing nature of terahertz radiation together with the ability to penetrate through common packaging materials have sparked significant interest in THz non-destructive imaging applications. There is a huge need for low-cost and compact THz systems, which will grow with the further discovery of potential THz wave applications. A natural solution to this issue is the usage of...
Terahertz (THz) radiation brings the attention of researchers and entrepreneurs for at least a few decades and has already found numerous applications in various areas, such as medical diagnostics, nondestructive testing, detection of dangerous materials and objects, security or telecommunication. This work focuses on the latter area of potential applications and aims at the development of the...
