Abstract
Sub-terahertz and terahertz frequencies can be generated by optical heterodyning of two wavelengths. Two laser modes, generated with a Photonic Integrated Circuit which integrates an Arrayed Waveguide Grating, are employed to create terahertz frequencies. The wavelength difference of the two optical modes defines the frequency of the generated wave, which can be discretely tunable by selecting different channels of the integrated filter.
