There's a simple reason why this field of research was of interest and a quick look into the Wikipedia page for Terahertz radiation [wikipedia.org](frequencies from 0.3 to 3 terahertz) will give you an idea.
Terahertz radiation occupies a middle ground between microwaves and infrared light waves known as the “terahertz gap”, where technology for its generation and manipulation is in its infancy. The generation and modulation of electromagnetic waves in this frequency range ceases to be possib
The actual report correctly refers to it as "sub-terahertz", which is the range from 100GHz to just under 1THz. But, of course, "terahertz" makes a better headline.
The Institute for Terahertz Science and Technology at UCSB doesn't bother with slower and somehow less beautiful Gigahertz Science. They are like 1000 times better than that.
I didnâ(TM)t think it was possible that I was dumb enough to not even understand any of the summary. But here we are.

Not to be that guy but .24 Thz is really 240 Ghz, I mean they could have said .0024 Thz for my microwave oven.
I was expecting at least 1.0 Thz from this.
