DESCRIPTION:Terahertz (THz) communications is envisioned as an up-and-comin
 g and pivotal wireless technology for the sixth generation (6G) and beyond
  era. In particular\, the ultra-wide THz band ranging from 0.1 to 10 THz o
 ffers enormous potential to alleviate the spectrum scarcity and break the 
 capacity limitation of emerging wireless systems (such as 4G-LTE and 5G NR
 ). This will undoubtedly support epoch-making wireless applications that d
 emand ultra-high quality service requirements and multi-terabits per secon
 d data transmission in the intelligent information society in the 2030s\, 
 such as terabit-per-second backhaul systems\, ultra-high-definition conten
 t streaming among mobile devices\, and virtual/augmented reality. In this 
 talk\, I will introduce the role and importance of THz communications for 
 the 6G and beyond wireless networks\, while briefly describing the fundame
 ntal research results on THz channels\, devices\, and standardisation. Aft
 er this\, I will give a brief summary of recent research advances in THz c
 ommunications\, focusing on performance analysis\, spectrum allocation\, a
 nd hybrid beamforming. Finally\, I will discuss some pressing challenges f
 or harnessing the benefits of THz communications in the next decades.\n\nS
