3D Printing And Terahertz Radiation

3D Printing And Terahertz Radiation is used for a variety of purposes, including airport security checks or material analysis in laboratories. This radiation has a wavelength that is much larger than visible light wavelengths, being in the millimeter-range. The beams must also be shaped using specialized techniques.

3D Printing And Terahertz Radiation, unlike X-rays is non-ionizing. This means it won’t affect the specimen being tested. This property of non-ionization has become more important in many biological applications, such as testing in vivo and in labs or security check points.

The TU Wien in Austria has successfully shaped terahertz rays using a plastic screen that was produced by a 3D-printer. Now, they can be shaped into any shape required for any application.

According to Professor Andrei Pimenov of the Institute of Solid State Physics of TU Wien it is like lenses but better.

He explains that “normal plastic is transparent to terahertz waves, similar to how glass is transparent to visible light.” “However, the 3D Printing And Terahertz Radiation wave slows down when it passes through plastic. The beam’s crests and valleys are shifted a bit. This is called phase shifting.

You can use phase shifting to create a specific beam shape. The middle light beams are phase delayed more than the outer light beams. The beam shape changes when the light beams are focused on a single point.

Jan Gosporadic is a PhD student in Pimenov’s group. He said: “We didn’t want to just map a beam from a large area to a small point. We wanted to be able transform any beam into any shape.

Inserting a plastic screen precisely adapted to the beam allows for a shape change. The screen is only a few centimeters in diameter, with a thickness of 0-4mm. The thickness of the screen must be changed at each stage so that different areas of light are deflected with a controlled manner, and the final image is achieved. They developed a special method of calculation to produce the screen using a 3D-printer.

A 3D printer must be accurate and reliable. We are specialized in the design and manufacture of precision lenses for use with printing screens to create the perfect 3D Printing And Terahertz Radiation beam.

The TU Wien believes that their method can be easily applied and that the 3D Printing And Terahertz Radiation technologies that are emerging will make it more precise and versatile.
