Title: 3D printing of High Precision Radiation Filters for next generation Cosmic Background (CMB) studies
Abstract: The terahertz (THz) spectral range is the part of the electromagnetic spectrum between 0.1–10 THz or 0.03–3 mm wavelength. For a long period, the terahertz band was relatively unexplored due to the unavailability of cost-effective and powerful sources. Due to the evolution of these devices in the mid-1980s, however, terahertz radiation has attracted much more attention. Since this part of the spectrum is between the infrared (IR) and microwave frequency ranges, the development of waveguides, filters, polarizers, lenses, and other optical components. Since terahertz waves to penetrate most dielectric materials offers the possibility of many applications. Since terahertz radiation can pass through organic tissue without causing damage, and it can be safely applied for biomedical applications. Radio astronomy and wireless communication are also fields with great interest in this spectral range. For example, terahertz waves could be used to detect cold bodies and debris in space or to increase data transmission using the larger bandwidth of the terahertz band.
