Working mostly on science and technology of terahertz waves, which are electromagnetic waves in the 0.1 to 10 THz range. Terahertz frequencies lie between radio waves and light in the electromagnetic spectrum.
Following is the summary of current research.
Characterization of water in aqueous solutions, gels, biological materials.
Developing new microstructures, photonic crystals, and metamaterials for terahertz optics.
