This paper is very cool - might be the coolest result of my career. We bent a flexible crystal, did some low-frequency confocal spectroscopy, and directly visualized intermolecular strain spectroscopically. @UofR @ChemRxiv @LucaCataz @URochesterChem

Super fun day - such great hosting at the @polimi by Prof. Pierangelo Metrangolo that I forgot to get a picture. Also had a blast with touring the ultrafast labs with Profs. Giulio Cerullo and Eva Pogna. And of course I’ve got @LucaCataz “handling” me 🤣 #THzDoesItBetter
