We show that the transmission of a terahertz (THz) pulse through single-layer graphene is strongly
nonlinear. As the peak electric field of the THz pulse exceeds 50 kV/cm, the graphene becomes
increasingly transparent to the THz radiation. When field strength reaches 800 kV/cm, the increased
transparency corresponds to a two-fold...
Tourism presents a significant challenge for island economies in the Global South attempting to improve local standards of living. Due to limited resources and often low education levels of island residents, tourism development frequently becomes a tool for foreign investors to profit while local people continue to work low-income jobs....
Due to the many advances in the areas of biotechnology and medicine, the need for long-
term storage and stabilization of biological materials is rapidly increasing. The field of
biopreservation is attempting to address these issues by finding ways to maintain the integrity and
functionality of proteins, cells, and organs...
Cellulose is an abundant and renewable resource currently being investigated for utility in nanomaterial form for various promising applications ranging from medical and pharmaceutical uses to mechanical reinforcement and biofuels. The utility of nanocellulose and wide implementation ensures increasing exposure to humans and the environment as nanocellulose-based technologies advance. Here,...
