Applied Research and Photonics, Inc.

Applied Research and Photonics, Inc. (ARP) manufactures terahertz spectrometer for biomedical, chemical, and analytical applications.Applied Research and Photonics, Inc. (ARP) is based in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, USA. ARP has demonstrated a number of products based on its proprietary nanotechnology. ARP technology received the prestigious NASA TechBrief's nano-50 award in 2007 and 2008. ARP inventions have earned several patents. ARP's terahertz spectrometer, TeraSpectra, uses a high power terahertz source for high resolution and very high sensitivity (parts per trillion) spectroscopy. ARP is also developing nanophotonic integrated circuit (nPIC©), a chip based platform technology. ARP has envisioned a number of products based on the nPIC chip.

Terahertz technology provides the next generation capabilities, overcoming the so-called terahertz gap, with new spectroscopy applications in this spectrum range.

Another exciting product is the TeraScan© that allows depth profiling of biological tissues and non-metallic substrates in a non-invasive way.
