Next Event

Entrance to sound proofed chamber with antennas test equipment and a computer.omCome and join us for our next webinar on the Midlands mm-Wave and THz Measurement Facility 25 September 2025 - 12.00hrs BST. For further information and how to register see here.    

The Midlands mm-Wave and THz Measurement Facility offers a comprehensive Electromagnetic Characterisation Suite supporting advanced research and development across a wide frequency range. The facility comprises three core components: (1) the THz Electronics Suite, enabling device and system testing from 10 MHz to 1.1 THz; (2) the THz Photonics Suite, designed for quasi-optical transmission, reflection, and scattering measurements from 0.2 to 6.5 THz; and (3) the Anechoic Chamber Suite, facilitating precise electromagnetic characterisation from 1.1 GHz to 330 GHz in a reconfigurable, controlled environment.

These integrated capabilities support diverse research areas, including 5G/6G communications, radar systems (conventional and quantum), metamaterials, stealth technologies, frequency-selective structures, IoT, and EM sensing for applications ranging from material science to healthcare. The facility is open to both academic and industrial users and is underpinned by a commitment to high-precision, stable, and repeatable measurement practices.

Our speakers will be:

Dr Alex Bystrov, Manager of the Midlands mm-Wave and THz Measurement Facility, University of Birmingham and Dr Miguel Navarro-Cía, Head of the Metamaterials and Nanophotonics Group, University of Birmingham.
