How do you make a THz frequency?

Broadband terahertz pulses can be generated by exciting THz-PCAs with a femto-second short pulse laser . Using a femto-second laser with ~ 100 fs optical pulse duration, terahertz pulses with their frequency content extended up to around 5 THz and an average power of a few μW can be achieved.

What frequency is THz?

Terahertz (THz) is a unit of measure of frequency that is equal to 1 trillion hertz (1012 Hz) . It usually refers to the frequency of an electromagnetic wave, which is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum invisible to the naked eye that lies in between the microwave and the infrared range.
