Prof. Mehmet Ünlü\, Ankara Yıldırım Beyaz ıt University\n\nTopic: "Tera-Nano: Novel Terahertz Components Using Nano technology"\n\nLocation: Middle East Technical University\, Ankara\, Turke y\n\nAbstract: The research on the so-called "terahertz gap"\, which inclu des the wavelengths between 30‑3000 µm of the electromagnetic spectrum\ , have attracted significant attention in the past two decades. Laying bet ween the infrared and millimeter-wave wavelengths\, the terahertz waves br ing unique behavior that can be achieved neither with infrared\, nor with millimeter-wave wavelengths\, offering novel applications in medical imagi ng\, spectroscopy\, and high-speed communications. The terahertz waves can penetrate all the materials except for water and metals\, while they can propagate on a light line with minimal spreading\, just like the infrared waves\, thanks to their small wavelengths. With these combined properties\ , unprecedented applications such as high-resolution imaging behind obstac les\, remote detection of explosives and other materials using spectroscop y\, and very high-speed wireless communications (>100 Gbps) become possibl e using terahertz waves.\n\nBio: Mehmet Unlu received his B.Sc.\, M.Sc.\, and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from Middle Ea st Technical University\, Ankara\, Turkey in 2001\, 2003\, and 2009\, resp ectively. He served as a research scientist at Cornell University Nanoscal e Science and Technology Facility\, Ithaca\, NY for Utah State University\ , Logan\, UT between 2009 and 2011. He joined the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor\, MI in 2011 as a postdoctoral research fellow. Since 2012\, he is serving as a faculty member at Ankara Yildirim Beyazit University\, An kara\, Turkey. His major research interests are the terahertz technology\, plasmonics\, optoelectronics\, and NEMS.\n\nDr. Unlu received the "TUBITA K Ph.D. Scholarship" between 2003 and 2009\, the "Prof. Mustafa N. Parlar Education and Research Foundation-METU Thesis of the Year Award" in 2009 f or his Ph.D. dissertation\, "Best Student Paper Award (2nd place) in IEEE International Symposium on Antennas and Propagation" and "Best Student Pap er Award (3rd place) in IEEE International Microwave Symposium" in 2013\, "Prof. Mustafa N.
