A compact and portable 300 GHz collective scattering diagnostic employing a homodyne detection scheme has been constructed and installed on the hot helicon experiment (HELIX). Verification of the homodyne detection scheme was accomplished with a rotating grooved aluminum wheel to Doppler shift the interaction beam. The HELIX chamber geometry and collection optics allow measurement of scattering angles ranging from 60 degrees to 90 degrees. Artificially driven ion-acoustic waves are also being investigated as a proof-of-principle test for the diagnostic system.

Electromagnetic radiation energy at millimeter wave frequencies, typically 30 GHz to 300 GHz, is ubiquitously used in society in devices for telecommunications; radar and imaging systems for vehicle collision avoidance, security screening, and medical equipment; scientific research tools for spectroscopy; industrial applications for non-destructive testing and precise measurement; and military and defense applications. Understanding the biological effects of this technology is essential. We have been investigating ocular responses and damage thresholds comparing various frequencies using rabbit eyes and dedicated experimental apparatus.

This study discusses the results of using a regression machine learning technique to improve the performance of 6G applications that use multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antennas operating at the terahertz (THz) frequency band. This research evaluates an antenna's performance using various methodologies, such as simulation and RLC equivalent circuit models. The suggested design has a broad bandwidth of 2.

Low-temperature scanning tunneling spectroscopy is a key method to probe electronic and magnetic properties down to the atomic scale, but suffers from extreme vibrational sensitivity. This makes it challenging to employ closed-cycle cooling with its required pulse-type vibrational excitations, albeit this is mandatory to avoid helium losses for counteracting the continuously raising helium prices. Here, we describe a compact ultra-high vacuum scanning tunneling microscope (STM) system with an integrated primary pulse tube cooler (PTC) for closed-cycle operation.

Flexible and wearable electronics are experiencing rapid growth due to the increasing demand for multifunctional, lightweight, and portable devices. However, the growing demands of interactive applications driven by the rise of AI reveal the inadequate connectivity of current connection technologies. In this work, we successfully leverage memristive technology to develop a flexible radio frequency (RF) switch, optimized for 6G-compatible communication systems and adaptable to flexible applications.

In terahertz communication systems, lens antennas used in transceivers are basically plano-convex dielectric lenses. The size of a plano-convex lens increases as the aperture increases, and thinner lenses have longer focal lengths. Through theory and simulation, we designed a Fresnel lens suitable for the terahertz band to meet the requirements of large aperture and short focal length, and simulated the performance, advantages, and disadvantages of the terahertz Fresnel lens.
