description: Albrecht Dürers zahlreiche Selbstdarstellungen zeugen von der steten Bemühung des Nürnbergers, in seiner Kunst persönliche Präsenz zu wahren. Diesem Zwecke diente auch das wohlbekannte Dürer-Monogramm, welches der Künstler konsequent verwendete und insbesondere in den druckgrafischen Kompositionen zu einem Substitut seiner selbst verlebendigte. Dürer verlieh seinen Initialen eine außergewöhnliche Wirkungsmacht, welche Künstler aus mehreren Generationen und Regionen zur Nachahmung anregte. Heinrich Aldegrever, Albrecht Altdorfer, Ambrosius Bosschaert d.Ä. und Hans Hoffmann nutzten die Nachahmung des Dürer-Monogramms, um Aussagekraft und Wirkungspotenzial ihrer eigenen Kunst zu erhöhen. Gemeinsam ist allen Nachahmungsformen des Dürerschen Monogramms die raffinierte Instrumentalisierung des Täuschungseffekts zur Herausstellung der eigenen künstlerischen Position und eigener malerischer Virtuosität. Eine wenn auch kurzzeitige Verwechselung mit Dürer konnte beispielsweise Heinrich Aldegrevers Anspruch auf die Nachfolge des berühmten Meisters effektvoll als berechtigt erweisen. Die Vortäuschung des Dürer-Signets in den Monogrammierungen Altdorfers, Bosschaerts und Hoffmanns konnte zudem das Potenzial ihrer Kunst zur Illusion des Lebens und der Natur stärken. Im Verlauf des 20. Jahrhunderts wurden Albrecht Dürers Ruhm und die Rezeption seiner Kunst häufig zum Gegenstand kunsthistorischer Publikationen. Dabei blieb die Nachahmung des Dürer-Monogramms weitestgehend von der Forschung unbeachtet. Die vorliegende Untersuchung versucht, Sinn und Zweck verschiedener Formen der Nachahmung des Dürer-Monogramms in der Kunst des 16. und des beginnenden 17. Jahrhunderts zu klären.

description: The order-disorder type phase transition caused by the vibronic interaction (collective Jahn-Teller effect) in a monoclinic CuInP$_2$S$_6$ crystal is analyzed. For this purpose, a trigonal protostructure model of CuInP$_2$S$_6$ is created, through a slight change in the crystal lattice parameters of the CuInP$_2$S$_6$ paraelectric phase. In parallel to the group-theoretical analysis, the DFT-based {\it ab initio} band structure calculations of the CuInP$_2$S$_6$ protostructure, para-, and ferriphases are performed. Using the elementary energy bands concept, a part of the band structure from the vicinity of the forbidden energy gap, which is created by the $d$-electron states of copper, has been related with a certain Wyckoff position where the Jahn-Teller's centers are localized. A construction procedure of the vibronic potential energy matrix is generalized for the case of crystal using the elementary energy bands concept and the group theoretical method of invariants. The procedure is illustrated by the creation of the adiabatic potentials of the $Γ_5$-$Γ_5$ vibronic coupling for the protostructure and paraphase of the CuInP$_2$S$_6$ crystal. A structure of the obtained adiabatic potentials is analyzed, followed by conclusions on their transformation under a phase transition and the discussion on the possibility for the spontaneous polarization to arise in this crystal.

description: Developmental control of gene expression critically depends on distal cis-regulatory elements including enhancers which interact with promoters to activate gene expression. To date no global experiments have been conducted that identify their cell type and cell stage-specific activity within one developmental pathway and in a chromatin context. Here, we describe a high-throughput method that identifies thousands of differentially active cis-elements able to stimulate a minimal promoter at five stages of hematopoietic progenitor development from embryonic stem (ES) cells, which can be adapted to any ES cell derived cell type. We show that blood cell-specific gene expression is controlled by the concerted action of thousands of differentiation stage-specific sets of cis-elements which respond to cytokine signals terminating at signalling responsive transcription factors. Our work provides an important resource for studies of hematopoietic specification and highlights the mechanisms of how and where extrinsic signals program a cell type-specific chromatin landscape driving hematopoietic differentiation.
The Financial Impact of the Volcker Rule – The Prohibition of Proprietary Trading and its Effect on the Profitability of Systemically Important Bank Holding Companies in the United States
Creators: name: Tocheva, Rally M.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2017

description: The Volcker Rule, paragraph 619 of the 2010 Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform Act, ignited much
controversy within the financial world. Specifically, it prohibited proprietary trading and hedge
fund relationships within FDIC-insured, systemically important financial holding companies.
Proprietary trading is the use of bank accounts and depositor funds to place trades for the benefit
of the respective financial institution and not for the direct financial benefit of the client. Those
who initially objected to the Volcker Rule argued that it would substantially reduce their
profitability through diminished market liquidity and investment opportunities. My research
explores whether this hypothesis is true. Through time-series analysis of balance sheets, income
statements, and Bank Holding Company Performance Reports, I investigate whether the full
implementation of the Volcker Rule on July 21, 2015 substantially impacted the profitability of
big banks through the end of 2016, and how the Volcker Rule caused a differential impact among
these banks. The top five bank holding companies by assets examined are JP Morgan Chase,
Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Citigroup, and Goldman Sachs.
Modeling oxygen dynamics and predicting hypoxic conditions in the Neuse River Estuary, North Carolina
Creators: name: Eegholm, Nathalie
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: Dissolved oxygen (DO) is essential for marine organisms to maintain basic metabolic processes. Conditions of low DO concentrations, hypoxia, can stress and kill organisms. Hypoxia often occurs in bottom water in estuaries as a result of increased DO consumption and water column density stratification. Previous DO modeling studies have taken into account physical and biogeochemical processes in forecasting hypoxic events. However, these studies have typically focused on variations over timescales of weeks to months. In many estuaries, oxygen levels can vary over much shorter timescales due to changes in mixing associated with tides or wind. We analyzed temperature, salinity, and DO profiles measured every 30 minutes in the Neuse River Estuary (NRE) of North Carolina from June to July of 2016 to understand the factors that drive hypoxia in a shallow, intermittently mixed estuary. Bottom DO varied between well-oxygenated and hypoxic over hours to days. Bottom DO concentration correlated strongly with salinity differences between the top and bottom water. We assessed the ability of a two-layer box model, developed to predict seasonal variations in DO in the same system, to predict DO variations on the order of hours to days. The model was unable to capture the DO variations in both the top and bottom water layers that were observed as the water column mixed and as it stratified. Sensitivity analyses suggested that changes in bottom DO as the water column stratified were not well represented by a consumption term with a constant rate coefficient, and the parameter values for the term that describes vertical mixing are not reasonable for this system over these timescales. This simple model could be improved and used to forecast hypoxic events in the NRE, which could help inform nutrient management policies and the management of fisheries and recreation within the estuary and other similar ecosystems.

description: We propose a reduced form set of two coupled continuous time equations linking the price of a representative asset and the price of a bond, the later quantifying the cost of borrowing. The feedbacks between asset prices and bonds are mediated by the dependence of their "fundamental values" on past asset prices and bond themselves. The obtained nonlinear self-referencing price dynamics can induce, in a completely objective deterministic way, the appearance of periodically exploding bubbles ending in crashes. Technically, the periodically explosive bubbles arise due to the proximity of two types of bifurcations as a function of the two key control parameters $b$ and $g$, which represent, respectively, the sensitivity of the fundamental asset price on past asset and bond prices and of the fundamental bond price on past asset prices. One is a Hopf bifurcation, when a stable focus transforms into an unstable focus and a limit cycle appears. The other is a rather unusual bifurcation, when a stable node and a saddle merge together and disappear, while an unstable focus survives and a limit cycle develops. The lines, where the periodic bubbles arise, are analogous to the critical lines of phase transitions in statistical physics. The amplitude of bubbles and waiting times between them respectively diverge with the critical exponents $γ= 1$ and $ν= 1/2$, as the critical lines are approached.

description: Quantum mechanics predicts a number of at first sight counterintuitive phenomena. It is therefore a question whether our intuition is the best way to find new experiments. Here we report the development of the computer algorithm Melvin which is able to find new experimental implementations for the creation and manipulation of complex quantum states. And indeed, the discovered experiments extensively use unfamiliar and asymmetric techniques which are challenging to understand intuitively. The results range from the first implementation of a high-dimensional Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) state, to a vast variety of experiments for asymmetrically entangled quantum states -- a feature that can only exist when both the number of involved parties and dimensions is larger than 2. Additionally, new types of high-dimensional transformations are found that perform cyclic operations. Melvin autonomously learns from solutions for simpler systems, which significantly speeds up the discovery rate of more complex experiments. The ability to automate the design of a quantum experiment can be applied to many quantum systems and allows the physical realization of quantum states previously thought of only on paper.

description: We introduce a generalized framework for private quantum codes using von Neumann algebras and the structure of commutants. This leads naturally to a more general notion of complementary channel, which we use to establish a generalized complementarity theorem between private and correctable subalgebras that applies to both the finite and infinite-dimensional settings. Linear bosonic channels are considered and specific examples of Gaussian quantum channels are given to illustrate the new framework together with the complementarity theorem.

description: We have carried out a systematic study on the effect of Cu doping on nuclear, magnetic, and dielectric properties in Mn$_{1-x}$Cu$_{x}$WO$_4$ for ${0}\leq{x}\leq{0.19}$ by a synergic use of different techniques, viz, heat capacity, magnetization, dielectric, and neutron powder diffraction measurements. Via heat capacity and magnetization measurements we show that with increasing Cu concentration magnetic frustration decreases, which leads to the stabilization of commensurate magnetic ordering. This was further verified by temperature-dependent unit cell volume changes derived from neutron diffraction measurements which was modeled by the Grüneisen approximation. Dielectric measurements show a low temperature phase transition below about 9-10 K. Further more, magnetic refinements reveal no changes below this transition indicating a possible spin-flop transition which is unique to the Cu doped system. From these combined studies we have constructed a magnetoelectric phase diagram of this compound.

description: This thesis studies various documentary portrayals of American food insecurity and
hunger, discussing the effectiveness of the storytelling and the values used in conveying
the sentiments and experiences that people in low-income families face in relation to food
insecurity. It discusses the social implications a documentary portrayal can have on a
viewer’s perception of poverty and acts as a companion piece to the original short
documentary “Feeding Dreams.” The video follows a food insecure family in central
North Carolina and explores the generational cycle of poverty, despite the children’s
naïveté of their family’s low-income status.
Tensionless Strings from Worldsheet Symmetries

description: We revisit the construction of the tensionless limit of closed bosonic string theory in the covariant formulation in the light of Galilean conformal symmetry that rises as the residual gauge symmetry on the tensionless worldsheet. We relate the analysis of the fundamentally tensionless theory to the tensionless limit that is viewed as a contraction of worldsheet coordinates. Analysis of the quantum regime uncovers interesting physics. The degrees of freedom that appear in the tensionless string are fundamentally different from the usual string states. Through a Bogoliubov transformation on the worldsheet, we link the tensionless vacuum to the usual tensile vacuum. As an application, we show that our analysis can be used to understand physics of strings at very high temperatures and propose that these new degrees of freedom are naturally connected with the long-string picture of the Hagedorn phase of free string theory. We also show that tensionless closed strings behave like open strings.

Associations Between Repeated Sugar Sweetened Beverage Consumption and the Theory of Planned Behavior Constructs: Attitude, Subjective Norms, Perceived Behavioral Control, Behavioral Intention
Creators: name: Bauert, Lia
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: Consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) is a risk factor for obesity as 1 SSB per day can increase the risk of obesity by 37%. This study looked at the generalizability of beverage consumption behaviors through changes in the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), a framework of individual decision making. We conducted an intervention where participants (n=74) were exposed to assigned repeated beverage consumption of a SSB or unsweetened beverage (USB) and assessed how beverage assignment changed TPB constructs: behavioral intention, perceived behavioral control, instrumental attitude, affective attitude, and subjective norm at pre- and post-intervention to limiting consumption of regular soda and water. Additionally, we looked at body mass index as a covariate in this relationship as it may affect TPB constructs. The effect of exposure to assigned beverage, time, and BMI on TPB constructs was measured using linear mixed models with random intercept and random slope to account for individual differences and time. The intervention decreased subjective norms to limit consumption of water, particularly for those with a lower BMI. Those assigned to USB had a decrease in behavioral intention to limit water consumption while those assigned to SSB had no statistically significant change to limit water consumption. These findings suggest that participants in the study perceived an increase in social pressure to consume water, especially those with a low BMI, and increased intention to consume water if they were assigned to the USB group. In conclusion, the assignment of daily USB consumption may increase intention for water consumption and promote public health interest in improving water consumption, especially populations at risk of dehydration, like the elderly and athletes, should be explored to understand changes in TPB constructs to improve water intake for future research.

description: We study the effect of temperature (T) and baryon density (μ) dependent hadron masses on the thermodynamics of hadronic matter. We use linear scaling rule in terms of constituent quark masses for all hadrons except for light mesons. T and μ dependent constituent quark masses and the light mesons masses are computed using 2+1 flavor Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model. We compute the thermodynamical quantities of hadronic matter within excluded volume hadron resonance gas model (EHRG) with these T and μ dependent hadron masses. We confront the thermodynamical quantities with the lattice quantum chromodynamics (LQCD) at μ = 0 GeV. Further, we comment on the effect of T and μ dependent hadron masses on the transport properties near the transition temperature.

description: We study a level crossing between the QCD axion and an axion-like particle, focusing on the recently found phenomenon, the axion roulette, where the axion-like particle runs along the potential, passing through many crests and troughs, until it gets trapped in one of the potential minima. We perform detailed numerical calculations to determine the parameter space where the axion roulette takes place, and as a result domain walls are likely formed. The domain wall network without cosmic strings is practically stable, and it is nothing but a cosmological disaster. In a certain case, one can make domain walls unstable and decay quickly by introducing an energy bias without spoiling the Peccei-Quinn solution to the strong CP problem.

description: The National Association of Women Artists (NAWA) was established in 1889 and is the oldest professional women's fine arts organization in the United States. NAWA's mission is to promote awareness of, and interest in, visual art created by women in the United States. As part of this effort NAWA holds an annual exhibition of works by members of the association and publishes an exhibition catalog to accompany or commemorate the annual exhibitions. These catalogs not only function as an exhibition catalog, but also as a document that summarizes the structure, membership, and activities of the association.Information that can be found in these catalogs includes lists of officers, members of the executive board and committees, prize winners, lists of exhibitor and members, and images of some of the artwork exhibited. Catalogs from the 2000s also include information on NAWA events and activities beyond the annual exhibition.Please note that the numbering of the annual catalogs was adjusted in 1960 and again in 1971. For example, NAWA designated the annual exhibition in 1960 as the 70th Anniversary Exhibition after 1959 was the 67th Annual Exhibition. These adjustments appear to have been made to reflect the date of the founding of the association, so that, by 1989, the annual exhibition commemorated the 100-year anniversary of the founding of NAWA in 1889.
Examining the DNA Obtained from Saliva Samples in Relation to the Pharmacogenetics of Kidney Transplantation

Year: 2014

description: The recent application of pharmacogenetics to the kidney transplantation process has provided a new method for creating drug dosage regimes that are specific to each patient. These regimes are based on a patient’s genotype, which is usually obtained from a blood sample. The purpose of this study was to determine whether saliva samples could be used as a less invasive alternative to blood samples for examining genes of interest in transplant patients. To test this hypothesis, the amount and purity of DNA was measured from four saliva samples. Following this, the purified DNA was run with the human primer for the SNP RS7767396 to determine if it had potential for use in further testing. The results from this work suggest that saliva samples produce an amount of DNA useful for further pharmacogenetic testing, though the resulting product contains more impurities than the DNA obtained from blood. These results imply that saliva samples could possibly be used as an alternative to blood samples in the future, making it more likely that patients would agree to participate in trials.

The Belk Boutique: An Evaluation from the Patient Perspective
Creators: name: Lohrei, Kaity

Year: 2015

description: Cancer patients from all over the world come to receive comprehensive treatment at the Duke Cancer
Center (DCC). The 267,000-square-foot center includes disease-specific clinic areas,
an on-site pharmacy specializing in serving cancer patients, spacious and comfortable infusion
rooms, a Patient Education Resource Center, and a family garden and café for patients and their
caregivers to relax between appointments. The Cancer Center also offers a large variety of
psychosocial services to patients through the Duke Cancer Patient Support Program (DCPSP). Created
in 1987, the DCPSP focuses on “treating the whole person,” rather than just the disease
through support services such as group and individual therapy, support groups, oncology recreation
therapy, educational workshops, and guided meditation. These professional support services are
accessible to all cancer patients and their families at no cost, through all stages of illness or
wellness. The DCPSP also offers resources to help patients cope with body image and functioning
issues. The Belk Boutique, located on the first level of the DCC, offers skincare products, wigs,
scarves and other head coverings, professional salon services, self-­‐image counseling, and
volunteer support. However, only a small percentage of adult cancer patients at the DCC utilize the
products and services available at the Belk Boutique. To increase its use and benefit to patients,
the DCPSP staff requested an evaluation of patient satisfaction with the products, services, and
staff and volunteers of the Belk Boutique, as well as an assessment of patient experiences in the
boutique. Evaluation Questions: 1. How do patients who have visited the Belk Boutique perceive its
current operation including the service provided by staff and volunteers and the suitability,
quality, affordability, and accessibility of current products and services offered? 4 2. What types
of products and services do adult cancer patients at the DCC want to help them cope with body image
and functioning issues? 3. How do patients rate and describe their experiences at the Belk Boutique?
4. How have the products and services provided at the Belk Boutique affected patients overall, with
particular attention to body image and functioning? 5. Why do only a small percentage of patients
visit the Belk Boutique?

description: We obtain discrete characterizations of wave front sets of Fourier-Lebesgue and quasianalytic type. It is shown that the microlocal properties of an ultradistribution can be obtained by sampling the Fourier transforms of its localizations over a lattice in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$. In particular, we prove the following discrete characterization of the analytic wave front set of a distribution $f\in\mathcal{D}'(Ω)$. Let $Λ$ be a lattice in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ and let $U$ be an open convex neighborhood of the origin such that $U\capΛ^{*}=\{0\}$. The analytic wave front set $WF_{A}(f)$ coincides with the complement in $Ω\times(\mathbb{R}^{d}\setminus\{0\})$ of the set of points $(x_0,ξ_0)$ for which there are an open neighborhood $V\subset Ω\cap (x_0+U)$ of $x_0$, an open conic neighborhood $Γ$ of $ξ_0$, and a bounded sequence $(f_p)_{p \in \mathbb{N}}$ in $\mathcal{E}'(Ω\cap (x_0+U))$ with $f_p= f$ on $V$ such that for some $h > 0$ \[ \sup_{μ\in Γ\cap Λ} |\widehat{f_p} (μ)| |μ|^p \leq h^{p+1}p!\:, \qquad \forall p \in \mathbb{N}. \]

description: This article provides a gentle introduction for a general mathematical audience to the factorization theory of motion polynomials and its application in mechanism science. This theory connects in a rather unexpected way a seemingly abstract mathematical topic, the non-unique factorization of certain polynomials over the ring of dual quaternions, with engineering applications. Four years after its introduction, it is already clear how beneficial it has been to both fields.
Speaking the Nation: Jordanian National Identity in the Speeches of King Abdullah II
Creators: name: McKenzie, Mary
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: King Abdullah II ascended the Jordanian throne in 1999 and has ruled the kingdom for the first two decades of the 21st century.  During this period, the Arab world has been rocked by internal revolts and revolutions that have brought issues of identity and representation to the fore of regional politics; at the same time, Jordan has largely remained “a quiet house in a troubled neighborhood.”  How has the concept of national identity been employed in Jordan to stabilize the political environment? This thesis analyzes the rhetoric of King Abdullah II as he articulates the Jordanian identity in his public speeches, and contends that this act of identity articulation is a political project that has aimed to construct and stabilize the nation and the Hashemite rule over it in the 21st century.  The transcripts of these public speeches, available on www.kingabdullah.jo, were the primary source material for this analysis. Secondary information was collected from books, journal and newspaper articles, and published reports.  As the elements of the King’s proposed Jordanian identity are explained and contextualized in the modern challenges that the nation has faced, the thesis begins to interrogate the future of this political project as political tensions continue to rise in the kingdom.

description: Strong lensing time-delay systems constrain cosmological parameters via the so-called time-delay distance and the angular diameter distance to the lens. In previous studies, only the former information was used. In this paper, we show that the cosmological constraints improve significantly when the latter information is also included. Specifically, the angular diameter distance plays a crucial role in breaking the degeneracy between the curvature of the Universe and the time-varying equation of state of dark energy. Using a mock sample of 55 bright quadruple lens systems based on expectations for ongoing/future imaging surveys, we find that adding the angular diameter distance information to the time-delay distance information and the cosmic microwave background data of Planck improves the constraint on the constant equation of state by 30%, on the time variation in the equation of state by a factor of two, and on the Hubble constant in the flat $Λ$CDM model by a factor of two. Therefore, previous forecasts for the statistical power of time-delay systems were significantly underestimated, i.e., time-delay systems are more powerful than previously appreciated.

description: We have further developed and extended a method for calculation of atomic properties based on a combination of the configuration interaction and coupled-cluster approach. We have applied this approach to the calculation of different properties of atomic lead, including the energy levels, hyperfine structure constants, electric-dipole transition amplitudes, and E1 parity nonconserving (PNC) amplitude for the (6p^2) ^3P_0 - (6p^2) ^3P_1 transition. The uncertainty of the E1 PNC amplitude was reduced by a factor of two in comparison with the previous most accurate calculation [V.~A.~Dzuba et.al., Europhys. Lett. 7, 413 (1988)]. Our value for the weak charge Q_W=-117(5) is in agreement with the standard model prediction.

A Review of the Literature utilizing Super Woman Schema and Strong Black Woman Race-Gender Framework to Explore the Relationship Between Stress and Health Outcomes
Creators: name: Lackey, Charity
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: The purpose of this paper is to gather and analyze studies that utilized the strong Black woman/superwoman stereotype to inform their hypotheses and methodology, and then to draw comparisons and contrasts regarding their definition of the stereotype. The literature review was conducted within the database PsysINFO and yielded eight articles that were analyzed for their design, participant demographics, research questions, findings, limitations and implications. Analysis revealed several similar implications for future research concerning the connection between psychological symptoms and endorsement of the strong Black woman/superwoman stereotype. Additionally, that research is still being conducted to understand how Black women perceive this stereotype. Further research needs to be conducted to define and structure framework or strengthen existing frameworks for the strong Black woman/superwoman stereotype in order to empirically draw connections between endorsement of this stereotype and undesirable health outcomes.

description: Podcasts are increasingly utilized in mental health contexts, such as communicating advice around improving wellbeing, guided meditations, psychoeducation, and translating research findings. This study aimed to explore demographics, motivations, behaviors, and attitudes of podcast listeners regarding podcasts dealing with content and themes related to mental health. Adult Australian podcast listeners (N = 629) completed a cross-sectional online survey including the Acquisition Questionnaire (AQ-9), the Mental Health Knowledge Schedule (MAKS) and the Internalised Stigma of Mental Illness scale (ISMI-9). Approximately one third had listened to a mental health-themed podcast in the last 12 months. Logistic regression models showed people who listened to a mental health-themed podcast held fewer stigmatizing attitudes toward people experiencing mental health issues on the AQ-9 (OR 1.0, 95% CI 0.9–1.0, p < .001), and had higher levels of mental health knowledge on the MAKS (OR 1.1, 95% CI 1.0–1.2, p < .01). However, there was no significant relationship with internalized stigma on the ISMI-9 (OR 1.4, 95% CI 0.9–2.3, p = .2). Future research is needed to determine if such podcasts indeed impact listeners’ attitudes and behaviors, and, if they do, how podcasts can be used for effective communication around mental health content.

description: We present a development of a high precision, tunable far-infrared (terahertz) frequency-domain dielectric spectrometer for studying the dynamics of biomolecules in aqueous solutions in the gigahertz-to-terahertz frequency. As a first application we report on the measurement of the absorption and refractive index for liquid water in the frequency range from 5 GHz to 1.12 THz (0.17 to 37.36 cm-1 or 0.268 to 60 mm). The system provides a coherent radiation source with a power up to 20 mW in the gigahertz-to-terahertz region. The power signal-to-noise ratio of our instrument reaches 1015 and the system achieves a spectral resolution of less than 100 Hz. The temperature of samples can be controlled precisely with an error bars of 0.02 oC from above 0 oC to 90 oC. Given these attributes, our spectrometer provides unique capabilities for the accurate measurement of even very strongly absorbing materials such as aqueous solutions.
