Fundamental research in photonics is enabling real-world applications at Terahertz (THz) frequencies (~0.1-10 THz), which have unique properties driving exciting new developments in non-destructive evaluation (NDE); at THz frequencies, most dry non-metallic materials are transparent, sub-mm spatial resolution is possible, transmission is sensitive to moisture content, and internal structure can be revealed. THz NDE is therefore a competitive technology to X-rays in many ways, but without the associated health risks. It is critical to understand fundamental THz interactions, so that appropriate models can be developed supporting applications.

光子学的基本研究正在启用Terahertz（THZ）频率（〜0.1-10 THz）的现实世界应用，这些频率具有独特的属性，这些特性在非破坏性评估（NDE）中推动了令人兴奋的新发展；在THZ频率下，大多数干燥的非金属材料都是透明的，可以使用亚MM空间分辨率，传输对水分含量敏感，并且可以揭示内部结构。因此，THZ NDE在许多方面都是X射线射击的竞争技术，但没有相关的健康风险。了解基本的THZ相互作用至关重要，以便可以开发出支持应用程序的适当模型。
