Terahertz chip-scale Systems: A New Design Paradigm

The University of Johannesburg’s (UJ) Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment in partnership with the UJ Library is proud to host a Hybrid Public Lecture with Prof Kaushik Sengupta, Associate Professor and the Director of the Integrated Microsystems Research Lab, Princeton University.

TITLE OF TALK: Terahertz chip-scale Systems: A New Design Paradigm

Silicon-based Terahertz systems is a field that is only about adecade old. In this time, we have seen a phenomenal growth of silicon systems operating at THz frequencies for a wide rangeof applications in sensing, imaging, and communication. It can be argued that both the ‘THz gap’ and the ‘technology and applications gap’ is closing in meaningful ways in the THz range. Technologies beyond 100 GHz focusing on sensing, imaging and wireless back-haul links are getting attractive as we enter a new area of highly dense network of autonomous systems requiring ultra-high speed and reliable links.
