Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, titled “Recent Advances in Terahertz Devices and Applications”, explores the latest developments in the field of terahertz technology, focusing on innovations in materials, design, process, measurement, and applications. A terahertz wave is an electromagnetic wave with a frequency ranging from 0.1 THz to 10 THz, which is between an infrared wave and a millimeter wave. Terahertz technology has a higher frequency and a wider bandwidth, and also provides higher capacity compared to 5G technology. Therefore, devices based on terahertz technology have become one of the new research hotspots and has great potential in areas such as military radar, medical detection, imaging, communication and sensing, and so on. Central theme of this Special Issue include the multifunctional optimization of . Here are some examples of the key advancements made within this field:
- Metamaterials, which enable novel properties and functions not found in natural materials, leading to breakthroughs in high-performance terahertz device design;
- Terahertz lasers, lenses, filter, antennas, and so on, which have the potential to improve terahertz spectrum and imaging systems, safety inspection, medical devices, and bioinstrumentation;
- Terahertz actuators, sensors, absorbers, filters, diodes, energy harversters, detectors, and other series of terahertz wave regulation functional devices, which can be used in terahertz communication systems.

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Micromachines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
