Graphene metamaterials for intense, tunable, and compact extreme ultraviolet and X-ray sources by Pizzi, Andrea, Rosolen, Gilles, Wong, Liang Jie, Ischebeck, Rasmus, Soljačić, Marin, Feurer, Thomas, Kaminer, Ido

“…Conventional photonic devices are limited in size by their operating wavelength, which helps compactness at the cost of a small interaction area. Here, plasmonic modes supported by multilayer graphene metamaterials are shown to provide a larger interaction area with the electron beam, while also tapping into the extreme confinement of graphene plasmons to generate high-frequency photons with relatively low-energy electrons available from tabletop sources. …”

Attempting developmental regionalism through AFTA : the domestic politics - domestic capital nexus by Helen E. S. Nesadurai

“…The relationship of regionalism to globalisation is modelled in the literature either as open regionalism aimed at integration with the global market or as a project of resistance to global market forces. Neither of these ideal-type models adequately accounts for an empirical puzzle associated with the ASEAN Free Trade Area (AFTA). …”
