Researchers have developed what they believe to be the first viable strategy for multiplexing radiation in the terahertz range. Terahertz rays may one day enable wireless data networks that are many times faster than today's cellular or Wi-Fi networks. Multiplexing -- the ability to send multiple data streams down a single medium -- is critical for any communications network, including those that use terahertz waves.
