CENTERA

CENTERA is an international research center created in September 2018. Administratively CENTERA is attached to the Institute of High Pressure Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences (IHPP PAS).
The main goal of CENTERA is to create in Warsaw a Central European  Research Center stimulating research efforts in the domain of terahertz science and technology.
During 15-19 October, 2019 CENTERA will organize the CENTERA THz Days, an international event of EU researchers active in the THz domain with the main purpose of building a basis for future strong scientific collaborations in the field.
CENTERA THz Days will consist of two main events:

FRENCH-POLISH SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY MEETING on 15–16 OCTOBER 2019 

and 

ANNUAL WORKSHOP of INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH PROJECT (IRP) – TERAMIR (17-19 OCTOBER 2019)

TOPICS

Terahertz (THz) electromagnetic waves and phenomena in the THz range are more and more intensely investigated, yet not fully unveiled in broad areas of sciences & technology ranging from fundamental physics to commercial applications.
CENTERA THz DAYS will cover:
Physics of THz emission & detection
- Electronic/photonic/plasmonic devices
- Nonlinear crystals
- Superconductors, bolometers, etc.

THz devices & electronic/optical components
- Sub-THz/THz transistors, mixers, etc.
- Metamaterials, photonic crystals, and surface-plasmon-polariton waveguides

FR-PL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY MEETING

The FRENCH-POLISH SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY MEETING on 15–16 OCTOBER 2019 is a CNRS and Polish Academy of Sciences joint initiative having as a goal to reinforce existing French-Polish collaborations and to help create new links between teams active in different areas of terahertz science and technology.

LIA TERAMIR MEETING

The INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH PROJECT (IRP) – TERAMIR WORKSHOP (17-19 OCTOBER 2019)
IRP is a natural continuation of the annual meetings of GDR and LIA programs of collaboration between France, Poland and Russia initiated by CNRS in 2010. Currently IRP–TERAMIR is directed not only to THz properties of solids but also to the dynamically developing research of different new states of the matter (Dirac matter, different topological states of 2D and 3D systems, Weyl semimetals, etc).
As usually, the TERAMIR meeting is devoted not only to the presentation of recent results of all participating laboratories (3 French, 2 Polish and 4 Russian) but invites also experts from the international scientific community. This October, we expect around 50 participants presenting their recent scientific results.

We plan the following tutorials:

1. Mikhail Belkin (Walter Schottky Institute, Germany) - Room-temperature terahertz quantum cascade laser sources based on intra-cavity difference frequency generation
2. Tomasz Dietl (IP PAS, Poland) -Point-contact spectroscopy of topological materials
3. Sergey Ganitchev (THz Center Regensburg, Germany) - Overview on Spin photogalvanics induced by terahertz radiation
4. Viktor Krozer (Goethe Universität Frankfurt am Main, Germany) - Higher frequency electronics and sub-terahertz diabetes detection
5. Idelfonso Tafur Monroy (Eindhoven University of Technology,The Netherlands)-Towards Terahertz Systems on chip
6. Hartmut Roskos (Göethe Universität Frankfurt am Main,Germany)Light-matter interaction in 1D THz photonic crystal cavity:Ultrastrong coupling and nonlinear optics
