International Symposium on Frontier of Terahertz Spectroscopy III
−Next generation technology in THz frequency region and its application to THz sensitive spectroscopy and sensing−

The Division of Terahertz Spectroscopy, the Spectroscopical Society of Japan, has organized the symposium on “Frontier of Terahertz Spectroscopy” every year from 2006, aiming for providing a platform for free discussion and information exchanges for terahertz spectroscopy and related science & technologies. This year, we organize the symposium focusing on the topics of “Next generation technology in THz frequency region and its application to THz sensitive spectroscopy and sensing,” on 22 and 23 October, 2009, in University of Fukui, collaborating with the Research Center for Development of Far-Infrared Region, University of Fukui. The symposium consists invited talks, poster sessions with contributed papers, a panel exhibition of products associated with THz spectroscopy by companies. “The Best Student Poster” and “Encouraging Prize” for young researchers will be awarded at the end of the symposium. We are expecting many people who are interesting in THz spectroscopy will attend the symposium and enjoy discussions.
