Description

Australian 3D Beam Measurement Platform from Radio Waves to Terahertz Waves. The project aims to establish a unique set of terahertz experimental equipment to support Australia’s significant growing interests in terahertz research on functional materials, devices, metamaterials, security scanning, biosensing and imaging. The proposed infrastructure is the only in Australia probing the frequency band ~500 GHz using a software-defined automation platform for planar, cylindrical or spherical scans of terahertz beams. The proposed facility will lay the foundation for future large-scale cooperative initiatives by the seven-university alliance and their collaborators in the national terahertz community. The project should boost terahertz applications in security screening, biomedical imaging, high-speed data transmission.. Scheme: Linkage Infrastructure, Equipment and Facilities. Field: 1005 - Communications Technologies. Lead: Prof Yang Yang
