The observation of terahertz nonlinearities in graphene and quantum wells and the emission of terahertz waves from water show that terahertz science is still a fertile area of research that is full of surprises.

There were many eye-opening findings and applications reported at the International Symposium on Microwave/Terahertz Science and Applications (MTSA 2017) held in Okayama, Japan from 19 to 23 November 2017. Interestingly, the symposium was combined and co-located with two other conferences. The first was the International Symposium on Terahertz Nanoscience (Tera Nano 8). The second was Current Trends in Optical and X-Ray Metrologies of Key Enabling Nanomaterials/Devices for the Ubiquitous Society, Renewable Energy and Health (Opto X Nano) symposium. The joint event provided a rich forum for discussing new developments in terahertz (THz) science and technology.
