Terahertz waveguides are step toward superfast computers

April 15, 2008 | Source: KurzweilAI

Taking an early step toward building superfast computers that run on terahertz waves instead of electricity, University of Utah engineers have developed waveguides that allow for carrying, splitting, and coupling terahertz signals.

The next step is to make devices, such as switches, transistors, and modulators, that operate at terahertz frequencies.
