DOI: 10.3390/ma12030352
Abstract: Recently developed concentric laser metal wire deposition (LMWD) heads allow metal addition processes which are independent of the deposition direction, thus enabling complex paths to be generated. The sensitivity of the process to height deviations… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ma15051871
Abstract: Metal-hole-supported terahertz (THz) waves through the structure of a metal-wire-woven hole array (MWW-HA) present high-frequency-passed transmittance spectra of one plasmonic metamaterial with artificial plasmonic frequencies, which are inversely proportional to metal-hole widths. For the transmitted… read more here.
