Journal ArticleDOI
Sustainable development and happiness in nations
TL;DR: In this paper, a new strategy is presented, which aims to explore relation between sustainability and happiness in order to promote sustainable development, and apparently no sacrifices in happiness are required, as it is possible to design strategies which improve happiness and sustainability simultaneously.
Journal ArticleDOI
Terahertz spectroscopic identification of explosive and drug simulants concealed by various hiding techniques.
TL;DR: Results show that rapid detection and identification of concealed simulants is possible in the frequency range from 1.5 to 4.0 THz by using an organic-crystal-based terahertz time-domain system and the spectral peak analysis method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climate changes, biofuels and the sustainable future
TL;DR: In this article, the possibilities of the bio-fuels to replace fossil fuels and their potential to contribute to the hydrogen economy are analyzed and discussed. But the authors focus on the potential of bio-diesel fuel to be used in the hydrogen-based economy.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the twist-grain boundary phase in a chiral liquid crystal is driven by direct interactions between surface-functionalized CdSe quantum dots and screw dislocations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Organic crystals for THz photonics
TL;DR: In this article, the most important principles for terahertz (THz) wave generation and detection were summarized and compared, as well as organic THz-wave system configurations based on either difference-frequency generation or optical rectification.
