Bibliography with Metadata:

Question

I am constructing a bibliography of as much of the prior research in a field I am working in. I would like to use BibTeX to print the citation in the pdf, and then I would like to add the details of the paper after the citation. Only then would I like to print the next citation. For example:

[1] Jahan M. Dawlaty and Yunquing Chen. Measurement of the optical absorption of graphene in the terahertz. Applied Physics Letters, 2008.

Research Group: Cornell

Pump Wavelength: 500 nm.

Probe Wavelenth: 7 microns.

Relaxation Time: 50 fs.

[2] Paul George and Dmitry Vekslar, Measurement of Ultrafast Carrier Dynamics in Graphene. Applied Physics Letters, 2009.

. . . and so on.

Does anyone know how this could be done?

Answer 1

As I mention in a comment, you could abuse the note field in the bib-file. This only works if the note is typeset last of course, and I don't know if that always is the case. Hence, this may not be a solution at all, though it works for the example you posted.

If this is a really bad idea, please let me know, I can delete the answer.
