Abstract :
Terahertz (THz) spectroscopy is playing an increasingly bigger role in biomedical science, spear headed by terahertz time domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) [1]. Terahertz spectroscopy has given us insights into the low frequency behaviour of biomolecules such as DNA and proteins [2-4]. Computational simulated models of biomolecules are improving and now provide comparison data [5].
