Chinese scientists unveil advanced terahertz wave polarisation modulator
This new technology to enhance material property research and improve quality monitoring in biopharmaceuticals
A team of Chinese researchers has achieved a breakthrough in terahertz wave technology by developing a highly innovative polarisation modulator. This is reported by China Daily, a partner of TV BRICS.
This cutting-edge device, capable of precise and dynamic control of terahertz wave polarisation, holds immense promise for applications in next-generation wireless communication and non-destructive cultural heritage examinations, according to the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Terahertz waves, occupying the frequency range between 0.1 and 10 terahertz, lie on the electromagnetic spectrum between microwaves and infrared waves. Known for their exceptional bandwidth and penetration capabilities, terahertz waves are seen as pivotal to advancements in wireless communication, material testing, and biomedical technologies.
The research team developed a device that can generate any desired polarisation state of terahertz waves, a capability that marks a substantial advancement over existing technologies, the source claims.
This new technology is expected to play a transformative role in multiple fields. It has the potential to enhance material property research, improve quality monitoring in biopharmaceuticals, and significantly reduce transmission losses while boosting data throughput in high-speed communication networks.

Ashok MondalNID Director"Signing this Memorandum of Understanding between the National Institute of Design (NID) and TV BRICS marks a pivotal milestone in advancing design diplomacy across the BRICS media space. This moment is especially significant as India hosts the 18th BRICS Summit, following India’s assumption of the BRICS chairship under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi. The partnership directly embodies his call to elevate Indian design standards through 'Design in India, Design for the World'. Through the global reach and broadcast capabilities of TV BRICS, we are excited to showcase the extraordinary visual storytelling, films, and design research of NID’s Film and Video Communication students to an international audience, while also welcoming and screening film works from BRICS network countries at NID Ahmedabad. This reciprocal exchange strengthens our shared commitment to educational, cultural, and artistic collaboration, fostering sustainable connections among global creative communities. NID Ahmedabad looks forward to leveraging this partnership to deepen cross-cultural dialogue, build international expert networks, and unlock transformative opportunities for filmmakers, researchers, and faculty across member nations" -
