(テラヘルツ関連)Researchers develop a high-power, portable terahertz laser

The instrument could bring powerful sensing and imaging capabilities out of the lab and into hospitals, airports, or other settings.

In the photo on the right, you can see a small laser chip with a thermoelectric cooler on a block next to the coffee mug. The background is a big cryo-cooler. On the left, you can see the tiny terahertz QCL.

Researchers at MIT and the University of Waterloo have developed a high-power, portable version of a device called a quantum cascade laser, which can generate terahertz radiation outside of a laboratory setting. The laser could potentially be used in applications such as pinpointing skin cancer and detecting hidden explosives.
