TERA A Particle Accelerator in a hand Terahertz (THz) radia.on (1 THz = 4 meV = 300 µm), is probably the most important por.on of the electromagne.c spectrum in terms of mul. disciplinary use in technology and basic science. The TERA (THz-ERA) project financed by INFN through the CALL for research program is dedicated to an R&D ac.vity on THz technology with the following goals: 1) The development of a highly intense THz source with an associated electric field of 50 MV/cm; 2) Innova.ve THz detectors and devices; 3) THz accelera.on cavi.es. These goals are the key components required to develop in the near future an all-THz based compact accelerator and at the same .me are the mains elements required by the mul.-disciplinary use of THz radia.on as defined by the European THz road map.
