Terahertz or THz may refer to:
*
Terahertz (unit)
The hertz (symbol: Hz) is the unit of frequency in the International System of Units (SI), often described as being equivalent to one event (or cycle) per second. The hertz is an SI derived unit whose formal expression in terms of SI base u ...
, a unit of frequency, defined as one trillion (10
12) cycles per second or 10
12 hertz
