In this review, we describe dielectric properties of biological tissues and liquids in the
context of terahertz (THz) biophotonics. We discuss a model of the THz dielectric permittivity …

Terahertz (THz) technology has experienced rapid development in the past two decades.
Growing numbers of interdisciplinary applications are emerging, including materials …

Since regular radio broadcasts started in the 1920s, the exposure to human-made
electromagnetic fields has steadily increased. These days we are not only exposed to radio …

Water is considered integral for the stabilization and function of proteins, which has recently
attracted significant attention. However, the microscopic aspects of water ranging up to the …

Stokes's law for the friction of a sphere in water has been argued to work down to molecular
scales, provided the effective hydrodynamic radius includes the hydration layer. In …

Isothermal titration calorimetry is a widely used biophysical technique for studying the
formation or dissociation of molecular complexes. Over the last 5 years, much work has …

It is crucial to uncover the mystery of water cluster and structural motif to have an insight into
the abundant anomalies bound to water. In this context, the analysis of influence factors is …

We show clear experimental evidence of cooperative terahertz (THz) dynamics observed
below 3 THz (∼ 100 cm− 1), for a low-symmetry Zr-based metal-organic framework …

The low-frequency collective vibrational modes in proteins as well as the protein–water
interface have been suggested as dominant factors controlling the efficiency of biochemical …

The hydration of biomolecules is one of the fundamental processes underlying the
construction of living matter. The formation of the native conformation of most biomolecules …
