Dendrimer Dipole Excitation: A Different Terahertz Era that is Often Overlooked

摘要

In a recent article Dr. Donald Tomalia mentioned that “Essentially, all new disruptive discoveries/technologies begin with a predictable period of disbelief and rejection. In some cases, progress or delay of acceptance is determined by access to special experimental instrumentation or emerging new characterization methodologies for unequivocal confirmation. More often than not, acceptance is simply determined by a handful of unique individuals who possess the curiosity, technical insights and skill sets to obtain the compelling results that overcome even the most severe critics. Such was the case for the discovery of dendrimers/dendritic polymers” 1.
