Abstract :
Millimeter waves funnel through nano gaps of 0.8-20 nm, 1) creating intensity enhancements of 108, 2) enhancing molecular cross sections by 103, and 3) greatly enhancing nonlinearities and lowering transition temperatures of correlated electron systems. Nano and terahertz technologies have much to offer to each other.
