Summary
This project aims to investigate and develop a novel approach for realizing tunable and reconfigurable terahertz (THz) filters using optical control signals instead of electrical control wires which cause performance degradation in THz integrated circuits. The new approach enables high performance adaptive THz filters and more advanced communication circuits for 6G-and-beyond wireless communications, which is an emerging technological area with a wide range of applications that will generate significant benefits to American society. In addition to future wireless communications, the research o
