The book presents information about Terahertz science, Terahertz photodetectors and Terahertz Lasers. A special emphasis is given to room temperature operation of long wavelength photodetectors based on novel quantum dots (Centered Defect Spherical Quantum Dots). Moreover, a complete analysis of systems based on Quantum Cascade structures to detect far infrared wavelengths is provided. Finally, the book presents Terahertz laser principles considering multi-color lasers in this range of wavelengths. Written as a background for graduate students in the Optics field. Provides background information for those working inTerahertz Technology Upgraded state-of-the-art related to the subject. Hot topic: Terahertz Technology is one emerging technology with many promising applications. INDICE: An overview of the technological and scientific achievements of the te-rahertz .- Terahertz and Infrared Quantum Photodetectors.-Terahertz and Infrared Quantum Cascade Lasers.
