About Plasnano

PLASNANO aims to revolutionize terahertz (THz) technology by developing novel plasmonic amplifiers based on advanced 2D materials, such as graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides. These amplifiers will be seamlessly integrated into SiGe BiCMOS platforms using innovative microtransfer printing (µTP) techniques. The project will also create a multi-scale modeling platform to optimize device design, efficiency, and interactions between THz waves and 2D materials. By delivering compact, high-power, and broadband THz technologies, PLASNANO enables transformative applications in wireless communication, imaging, sensing, and security, positioning itself as a leader in the rapidly expanding THz market.
