Tellurium as a Chiral THz Anchor in the GTSFC-USC-GTCW Framework

This record presents a research article on tellurium as a material anchor for chiral terahertz dynamics within the GTSFC-USC-GTCW framework. The study develops a mathematically explicit and experimentally auditable description of magneto-chiral THz response in tellurium and uses this material system as a falsifiable bridge between laboratory observables and an effective structural-code formalism.

The article is organized around a strict separation of layers: direct observables, effective-model quantities, and hypothesis-level code-mapping parameters. The analysis introduces modal estimators for growth, frequency, and odd-in-field response, together with a PASS/FAIL protocol, an uncertainty budget, a comparative material map, and transfer criteria for trigonal selenium and alpha-quartz. The record also documents the role of publicly available experimental resources and provides a transparent path from time-domain data to effective descriptors and testable predictions.

The scope of the work is deliberately constrained. The article does not claim a direct measurement of code-layer parameters. Instead, it formulates a controlled and falsifiable mapping from experimentally accessible THz observables to the effective and hypothesis layers of the framework. In this sense, tellurium is treated as a chiral anchor material that enables rigorous testing of the formalism rather than as a standalone proof of the full theory.
