Welcome to the Homepage of the Ultrafast Photonics and THz Physics Group of Prof. Dr. R. Beigang

Our research program is devoted to the generation and application of photonic terahertz (THz) radiation. In particular, we are using ultrashort laser pulses to generate and detect THz radiation in a frequency range from 50 GHz up to several THz. The generated THz radiation is used in fundamental and applied research projects including the investigation of excitation and propagation of surface plasmon polaritons, the spectroscopy of polar molecules as well as two- and three-dimensional imaging of objects.
