Redox‐Confined Interfacial Polymerization Enables Mechanically Robust and Self‐Adhesive Nanofilms

ABSTRACT Robust polymer nanofilms are increasingly important for applications that require mechanically strong yet compliant membranes with nanoscale thickness and intimate interfacial contact. While biological membranes naturally combine flexibility, adaptability, and adhesion,...

Short mode-locked pulses from planarized Y-coupled THz lasers

Short THz pulses are highly attractive both for fundamental research and practical applications in this underdeveloped region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Typically, THz pulses are generated using nonlinear optical methods, starting from a high-power visible or near-IR mode-l...
