    Tera-Hertz radiation ranges from 0.1-10 THz and lies between the mm wave and far-infrared portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. It has not been fully explored due to a lack of bright sources and sensitive detectors, and its waves are invisible to the naked eye. Tera-Hertz radiation can penetrate dielectric objects and is highly absorbed by water molecules. It also has better imaging capabilities than microwaves or mm-waves due to its shorter wavelength, as the diffraction limit is inversely proportional to wavelength. Common sources of tera-hertz include pulsed and CW systems, while detection is enabled by bolometers, Golay cells, pyroelectric detectors, and ultra-fast Schottky
