Abstract:
While the frequency spectrum allocated to the 5th generation (5G) wireless communications has not been fully utilized, research groups worldwide are already juggling their positions for 6G, in which frequencies 100 GHz to 3 THz are promising. Imaging, sensing, and spectroscopy will also be essential applications in 6G. The State Key Laboratory of Terahertz and Millimeter Waves (SKLTMW), with staunch support from the Innovation and Technology Commission (ITC) of the HKSAR and City University of Hong Kong, started THz research in 2011. This lecture will summarize our THz research on antennas, integrated circuits (ICs), and imaging in the past five years supported by a Theme-Based Research Scheme project funded by the Hong Kong Research Grants Council. We will also discuss how system-level research can lead to new ideas and directions, setting the stage for the 6G era.
