Facility For the Development and Characterization of New High-Performance Submillimeter Wave Lasers
Abstract
A facility for the development and characterization of submillimeter wave coherent sources (emitting from 100 GHz to a few THz) will be developed. It will enable major advances in this field such as new room temperature sources and other devices such as modulators and receivers for important applications including chemical sensing and short-range communications in this underutilized frequency range. This facility will also support the effort of a new Army Research Office contract supporting the PI, aimed at developing a new type o fsub-millimeter gas laser featuring compact room temperature operation, high brightness, broad tunability and much higher power than existing sources. A growing number of groups at Harvard have expressed interest in this frequency range for numerous applications. Students and postdocs from Harvard and other Universities will have access to this facility.
