Molecular spectroscopy was the earliest application in the terahertz spectral region and remains one of the most important. With the development of modern technology, spectroscopy has expanded beyond the laboratory and is the basis for a number of important remote sensing systems, especially in atmospheric science and studies of the interstellar medium. Concurrently, these spectroscopic applications have been one of the prime motivators for the development of terahertz technology. This paper will review these issues in the context of the requirements placed on future technology developments by spectroscopic applications.
