The sol-gel method has been employed for the fabrication high quality mesostructured hybrid films. The effect of the nature of the matrix on the absorption and fluorescence spectra was found. It was shown that the aggregation of the dye molecules is significantly weaker in the SiO2-P123/Rh6G based hybrid films. In cas…

A previous study of available diatom sequences tested the value of multiple outgroups in analyses of the 18S ribosomal RNA gene aimed at recovering the three diatom Classes (Coscinodiscophyceae, Mediophyceae, Bacillariophyceae) as monophyletic groups. Of the 34 datasets tested in that study, three recovered these Clas…

Multiferroic materials are presently intensively investigated as potential candidates for a new generation of solar cells. We propose an approach to the photovoltaic effect that takes directly into account the crystal and light beam wave symmetries. it is based on an expansion in Wigner spherical functions and it allo…

Axial crystals have axial symmetry which keeps invariant straight line with a fixed point. Axial symmetry groups include 27 non-cubic crystallographic point groups and 5 limit groups describing symmetry of textures and liquid crystals. We show that, except for four cases, each axial symmetry belongs to one of five axi…

Tiaozi 条子, or reinforcing strips, are traditionally used to protect and support the cracked or torn areas often seen in rolled Chinese hanging scrolls. They are usually adhered to the verso after a first new lining has been applied or as a repair to the burnished back of a scroll. However, this traditional method can…

Abstract Herein we report for the first time the use of dynamic covalent reactions (DCRs) for building a π‐stacking model system and further quantifying its substituent effects (SEs), which remain a topic of debate despite the rich history of stacking. A general DCR between 10‐methylacridinium ion and primary amines w…
