> we have and had absolutely no issues generating waves with 100s of THz frequency

In a way suitable for even medium range RF communication? No. That's what I mean. The required power would be insanely high. So high that it's not achievable without some breakthrough. I didn't literally mean "break the laws of physics", because that's something we obviously cannot do.

What do you mean? We routinely do satellite communications with free space optics, and fibre comms which at the backbone of all modern comms uses light around 193 THz.
