About this journal
The Journal of Infrared, Millimeter, and Terahertz Waves offers a peer-reviewed platform for the rapid dissemination of original, high-quality research in the frequency window from 30 GHz to 30 THz. The topics covered include: sources, detectors, and other devices; systems, spectroscopy, sensing, interaction between electromagnetic waves and matter, applications, metrology, and communications. Manuscripts submitted to the Journal should discuss a significant advancement to the field of infrared, millimeter, and terahertz waves.
The journal publishes Original Research papers, Invited Reviews or Correspondences (also known as Letters).
Manuscripts can be submitted to one of the following categories:
- Sources: Including systems based on photoconductive antennas and related techniques, resonant tunnelling diodes, microwave devices, vacuum tube based sources, free electron lasers, synchrotrons, high power microwave sources, gas lasers, quantum cascade lasers and sources relying on parametric down conversion.
- Detectors: THz detectors, detector arrays or part of detectors such as mixers or antennas.
- Devices: Modulators, reflectors, filters and waveguides as well as metamaterial-based devices.
- Systems: Including entire emitter-receiver systems, imaging systems, characterization of systems, but also data extraction algorithms and metrology problems.
- Spectroscopy: Interaction between THz waves and all states of matter; includes THz spectroscopy on solids, liquids, gases, and plasmas.
- Communications: short-range wireless communications using THz carrier waves.
- Applications: Manuscripts which discuss possible applications e.g. e.g. for industrial inspection, bio-medical sensing, and material science.
