The bandwidth of wireless communication is expected to grow exponentially due to the expansion of mobile devices and the increase of real-time and realistic multimedia services. Recently, the studies on terahertz band wireless communication have been actively conducted for the next generation communication after 5G wireless communication. The terahertz band, which is the unallocated frequency band, has been applied to the non-contact, non-destructive quality inspection industry such as the terahertz imaging and spectral systems through the development of terahertz generating and detecting components. This article briefly describes recent research trends on terahertz wireless communication technologies and introduces the details of photonics-based terahertz devices and systems that have been focused on the Terahertz Basic Research Section of Electronics and Telecommunication Research Institute.
