We demonstrate here, for the first time, the construction of artificial materials, which theoretically possess two separate pass-bands utilizing the difference between positive and negative refraction in the terahertz frequency regime. Experimental t... Read More about Negative refracting materials at THz frequencies..

In Proceedings of the 33rd International Conference on Infrared, Millimeter, and Terahertz Waves, 15-19 September 2008, Pasadena, California (104-105). https://doi.org/10.1109/icimw.2008.4665466

In this paper we report on a novel fabrication approach for the manufacture of terahertz waveguides with embedded metal rods. It is anticipated that this type of structure could be used for sub-wavelength imaging or as a method to effectively couple...

Poole-Frenkel conduction in single wall carbon nanotube composite films built up by electrostatic layer-by-layer deposition (2008)
Journal Article
Jombert, A., Coleman, K., Wood, D., Petty, M., & Zeze, D. (2008). Poole-Frenkel conduction in single wall carbon nanotube composite films built up by electrostatic layer-by-layer deposition. Journal of Applied Physics, 104(9), Article 094503. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.3006015

The fabrication of large area thin films of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) using electrostatic layer-by-layer deposition is reported. The in-plane current versus voltage (I-V) characteristics were dependent on the concentration of SWCNTs trans...
