The Photonics100

The Photonics100 is Electro Optics' year-round celebration of the people that drive our industry forward – the innovators, the boundary-pushers, the disruptors, the out-of-the-box thinkers and the R&D ‘rock stars’.

Cover Feature Optics & Photonics News

Prof. Clara Saraceno graces October Optics & Photonics News magazine cover, co-authoring the featured article on high-power ultrafast terahertz technology and how our research advances laser-driven THz sources, pushing boundaries of THz science limits.

EOSAM 2025

We present a THz time-domain spectroscopy system with MNA crystal as emitter/detector. The THz source uses optical rectification of 1036nm laser pulses, achieves 11mW at 100kHz and >9THz bandwidth. High efficiency (0.13%) despite 8W excitation. Validated up to 8THz.

New Publication

High-power Ytterbium laser-driven THz sources: Our comprehensive arxiv article reviews the spectacular progress toward watt-level THz generation. Tremendous laser advancements will revolutionize THz applications in science and technology!
