TeraView’s strong commitment to fundamental and applied THz research and development, combined with its drive to understand and interpret terahertz data, is represented in academic publications and international journals.
Terahertz Quantitative Nondestructive Evaluation of Failure Modes in Polymer-Coated Steel
Dong, J. ; Locquet, A. ; Citrin, D. S.AbstractTerahertz reflective imaging is applied to characterize the failure modes in a polymer coating on a steel plate. The coating was initially scratched, then after accelerated aging, several types of failure have occurred. In...
Terahertz Spectroscopy Applications in Medicament Analysis
Sulovská, Kateřina.AbstractTerahertz spectroscopy came to the attention of the broader scientific community in the 90s of the 20th century with the development of science and technology in particular, enabling to work in terahertz spectral region. Terahertz...
Methanol-Water-Dependent Structural Changes of Regenerated Silk Fibroin Probed by Terahertz Spectroscopy
Wu, Xu, Xiaodong Wu, Bin Yang, Min Shao, and Guojin Feng.AbstractThe mechanism of β-sheet crystallization in silk fibroin remains unclear, due to the incomplete information of protein assembly and structural state. The emerging terahertz (THz) spectroscopy...
Experimental and Theoretical Study of Strong Low-Terahertz Absorption of Thymine
Zhang, W-D., A. Bykhovski, J. A. Deibel, and E. R. Brown.AbstractThe absorption coefficient of a nucleobase-thymine-in powder form was measured with terahertz spectroscopy in both frequency- and time-domain experiments. For frequencies below 3 THz, a strong signature...
Mathematical Modelling of Liquid Transport in Swelling Pharmaceutical Immediate Release Tablets
Markl, D., Yassin, S., Wilson, D. I., Goodwin, D. J., Anderson, A., Zeitler, J. A.AbstractOral dosage forms are an integral part of modern health care and account for the majority of drug delivery systems. Traditionally the analysis of the dissolution behaviour of a...
Characterization of the Pore Structure of Functionalized Calcium Carbonate Tablets by Terahertz Time-Domain Spectroscopy and X-Ray Computed Microtomography
Markl, D. ; Wang, P. ; Ridgway, C. ; Karttunen, A. P. ; Chakraborty, M. ; Bawuah, P. ; Zeitler, J. A.AbstractNovel excipients are entering the market to enhance the bioavailability of drug particles by having a high porosity and, thus, providing a rapid liquid uptake...
On the role of API in determining porosity, pore structure and bulk modulus of the skeletal material in pharmaceutical tablets formed with MCC excipient
Cathy Ridgway ; Prince Bawuah ; Daniel Markl ; J.Axel Zeitler ; Jarkko Ketolainen ; Kai-Erik Peiponen ; Patrick GaneAbstractThe physical properties and mechanical integrity of pharmaceutical tablets are of major importance when loading with active pharmaceutical...
Use of a handheld terahertz pulsed imaging device to differentiate benign and malignant breast tissue

Terahertz spectroscopy and solid-state density functional theory calculations of structural isomers: Nicotinic acid, isonicotinic acid and 2-picolinic acid.
Ding, L., Fan, W. H., Chen, X., Chen, Z. Y., Song, C.AbstractWe report, for the first time to our knowledge, the terahertz (THz) spectra of isonicotinic acid and 2-picolinic acid. The distinct THz spectral differences among these two isomers and nicotinic acid have...
