Terahertz to Hertz Conversion Table
Common values, ready to copy:
| terahertz | hertz |
|---|---|
| 1 THz | 1.0000e+12 Hz |
| 2 THz | 2.0000e+12 Hz |
| 5 THz | 5.0000e+12 Hz |
| 10 THz | 1.0000e+13 Hz |
| 25 THz | 2.5000e+13 Hz |
| 50 THz | 5.0000e+13 Hz |
| 100 THz | 1.0000e+14 Hz |
| 1,000 THz | 1.0000e+15 Hz |
Formula
hertz = terahertz × 1000000000000
Frequency uses the SI hertz (Hz, cycles per second). 1 kHz = 1,000 Hz; 1 MHz = 1 million Hz; 1 GHz = 1 billion Hz. RPM and BPM are both "cycles per minute": 60 RPM = 1 Hz.
About Terahertz and Hertz
Terahertz (THz): A trillion hertz; the unit for far-infrared light and emerging high-bandwidth applications. Common uses: Far-infrared imaging, some emerging 6G research, and the frequency range just below visible light.
Hertz (Hz): Cycles per second; named for Heinrich Hertz, who experimentally demonstrated electromagnetic waves in 1887. Common uses: Audio (Hz range for human hearing is 20-20,000 Hz), AC power frequency (50 or 60 Hz), and the SI base unit for any periodic phenomenon.
How the conversion works
Frequency uses the SI hertz (Hz, cycles per second). 1 kHz = 1,000 Hz; 1 MHz = 1 million Hz; 1 GHz = 1 billion Hz. RPM and BPM are both "cycles per minute": 60 RPM = 1 Hz.
The exact relationship is hertz = terahertz × 1000000000000, which the calculator at the top of this page applies in both directions. Type into either field and the other updates immediately.
When this conversion matters
Converting between terahertz and hertz comes up wherever frequency measurements move between systems — from one country's conventions to another's, from a scientific reference to a practical specification, or from one industry's working unit to another's. The calculator and reference table above cover the everyday range; for unusual values you can type any number into either field.
