Paper Abstract
This digest paper debates basic features of the terahertz band of frequencies. There are presented fundamental
characteristics of the basic terahertz system consisting of a THz source, propagation media, transmission lines, THz
signal processing, and detectors. Such a system finds research application, but also practical in two main areas: terahertz
imaging – transmissive and reflective, and as a close range THz radar, but also as sensory systems mainly for molecular
sensing. There were launched in this country a few THz research projects concerning the THz sources, detectors and
their applications. Among these projects there is an infrastructural one called FOTEH, opened at the WUT. The details
of this project are debated and the consequences of its realization in this country. The first part of the paper is an
introduction debating THz band and comparing it with the photonics one. The second part presents the assumptions of
the infrastructural FOTEH project on Photonics and Terahertz Technologies.
