Terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) is a non-invasive, non-contact and label-free technique for biological and chemical sensing as THz-spectra is less energetic and lies in the characteristic vibration frequency regime of proteins and DNA molecules. However, THz-TDS is less sensitive for de...
