THz Band

Technical Explanation

The Terahertz spectrum (0.3 to 10 THz) is the bridge between radio waves and optics. In 6G, THz frequencies enable two breakthrough capabilities: wireless terabit communication pipes and molecular spectroscopy. At THz frequencies, molecular absorption lines correspond to the rotational resonances of gases and airborne pathogens. Consequently, 6G THz transceivers can detect toxic gas leaks, identify airborne viruses, and analyze chemical compositions while simultaneously transmitting wireless data.

Key Functions

• Terabits-per-second data transfers for ultra-dense computing clusters and data centers
• Spectroscopic molecular chemical sensing and non-destructive material inspection
• Sub-millimeter radar localization and high-definition surface texture imaging
• Ultra-compact plasmonic and graphene nano-antenna array integration
• Zero interference with lower cellular frequency bands due to high atmospheric attenuation
