Food product safety is a public health concern. Most of the food safety analytical and
detection methods are expensive, labor intensive, and time consuming. A safe, rapid …

Terahertz (THz) technology has experienced rapid development in the past two decades.
Growing numbers of interdisciplinary applications are emerging, including materials …

Molecular recognition and discrimination of carbohydrates are important because
carbohydrates perform essential roles in most living organisms for energy metabolism and …

The terahertz region of the electromagnetic spectrum spans the frequency range between
the infrared and the microwave. Traditionally the exploitation of this spectral region has been …

Terahertz pulsed spectroscopy (TPS) and terahertz pulsed imaging (TPI) are two novel
techniques for the physical characterization of pharmaceutical drug materials and final solid …

With the ongoing proliferation of terahertz time-domain instrumentation from semiconductor
physics into applied spectroscopy over the past decade, measurements at terahertz …

Low-frequency vibrational modes of biological molecules consist of intramolecular modes,
which are dependent on the molecule as a whole, as well as intermolecular modes, which …

As one of the main functional substances, carbohydrates account for a large proportion of
the human diet. Conventional analysis and detection methods of dietary carbohydrates and …

The terahertz regime of the electromagnetic spectrum was largely unexplored due to the
lack of technology needed to generate and detect the radiation. However, in the last couple …

Despite much effort in the area, no comprehensive understanding of the formation and
behaviour of amorphous solids has yet been achieved. This severely limits the industrial …
