We studied an influence of continuous terahertz (THz) radiation (0.12 - 0.18 THz, average power density 3.2 mW/cm2) on a rat glial cell line. A dose-dependent cytotoxic effect THz is demonstrated. After 1 minute exposure relative number apoptotic cells increased in 1.5 times, after 3 minutes it doubled. This result confirms the concept biological hazard intense radiation. Diagnostic applications can be restricted by and time.

This manuscript describes harmonic generation in semiconductor superlattices, starting from a nonequilibrium Green's functions input to relaxation rate--type analytical approximations for the Boltzmann equation which imperfections structure lead asymmetric current flow and scattering processes under forward reverse bias. The resulting current-voltage curves predicted consequences on generation, notably development of even harmonics, are good agreement with experiments. Significant output...

Abstract Optical nonlinearities are of perpetual importance, notably connected with emerging new materials. However, they difficult to exploit in the gigahertz–terahertz (GHz–THz) range at room temperature and using low excitation power. Here, we present a clear-cut theoretical experimental demonstration real time, power, control GHz–THz nonlinearities. The nonlinear susceptibility concept, successful most materials, cannot be used here show contrast, complex interplay between applied...
