Title: Advances in terahertz solid-state physics and devices

Abstract

Terahertz (THz) science and technology have attracted tremendous attention owing to their potential applications in areas including high-speed communications, nondestructive evaluation, biological and medical sensing, and national security.1,2 Terahertz waves bridge electronics and photonics, as well as classical and quantum physics, making them equally attractive for fundamental studies of novel physical phenomena. To realize a broad range of real terahertz applications, it is essential to develop compact solid- state devices for terahertz sources, detectors, modulators, and compact systems. These devices often employ quantum materials and heterostructures and can incorporate other features including carrier transfer using atomic layer epitaxy, micro- and electromechanical systems, plasmonic resonators, and metamaterials. To optimize these devices, we have to understand and control ultrafast carrier dynamics in these advanced materials. Furthermore, we have organized a Special Topic in the Journal of Applied Physics to highlight the state-of-the-art in terahertz solid-state devices while also unveiling the properties of these materials on an ultrafast timescale.
