21. Planar-Goubau-line components for terahertz applications
Abstract : Terahertz-wave technology has a broad range of applications, including radio astronomy, telecommunications, security, medical applications, pharmaceutical quality control, and biological sensing. However, the sources, detectors, and components are less efficient at this frequency band due to parasitic effects and increased total losses, which hinder the performance of terahertz systems.

22. Photonic terahertz-wave generation, radiation and quasioptical integration
Abstract : This thesis deals with the uni-travelling-carrier photodiode (UTC-PD) based photonic generation of terahertz waves, antenna designs for the terahertz radiation and a novelcatadioptric lens for quasioptical integration.The ongoing and accomplished research work on the UTC-PD, its limitations and optimisation scopes for attaining higher bandwidth and higher output power have been discussed.

23. Design and characterisation of terahertz Schottky diode harmonic mixers
Abstract : Efficient, compact, and reliable terahertz frequency converters preferably operating at ambient temperature are crucial for stabilising far-infrared optical sources. This thesis focuses on the design and characterisation of terahertz Schottky diode harmonic mixers for frequency stabilisation of quantum-cascade lasers. READ MORE

24. Photonic THz Generation and Quasioptical Integration for Imaging Applications
Abstract : This thesis deals with the analysis and optimisation of the uni-travelling-carrier photodiode (UTC-PD) for continuous-wave generation in terahertz (THz) frequencyrange. Photonic THz generation using UTC-PDs is extremely promising as it offers wide tunability, adequate output power and room temperature operation. READ MORE

25. Submillimeter-Wave Waveguide Frontends by Silicon-on-Insulator Micromachining
Abstract : This thesis presents novel radiofrequency (RF) frontend components in the submillimeter-wave (sub-mmW) range implemented by silicon micromachining, or deep reactive ion etching (DRIE). DRIE is rapidly becoming a driving technology for the fabrication of waveguide components and systems when approaching the terahertz (THz) frequency range. READ MORE
