The photoresponsive J-aggregation behaviors of a novel azobenzene-substituted zinc phthalocyanine (azo-ZnPc dyad) were studied by UV/vis, fluorescence, and (1)H NMR spectroscopy. Upon illumination with 365 nm UV light, the trans-cis isomerization of azobenzene can efficiently reduce the steric hindrance around the per…

The extracellular cell matrix (ECM) surrounds cells and plays important roles in many aspects of cellular fate, including cell migration, stem cell differentiation, and cancer progression. So far, there is no fluorescent dye to directly visualize the ECM network. Here we present a positively charged fluorescent core-s…

We describe a new synthetic strategy to produce multifunctionalized carbon nanotubes using a combination of two different addition reactions, the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides and the addition of diazonium salts, both via a simple and fast microwave-induced method. The presence of multifunctionality o…

We derive expressions for shock formation based on the local curvature of the flow characteristics during dynamic compression. Given a specific ramp adiabat, calculated for instance from the equation of state for a substance, the ideal nonlinear shape for an applied ramp loading history can be determined. We discuss t…

Fabrication of operable surface-stabilized ferroelectric liquid crystals (SSFLC) is often hampered by the occurance of zigzag defects. This defect formation can, to some extent, be controlled or eliminated in SSFLCs in which the rubbing directions are set parallel. In this study, we try to fabricate a defect-free SSFL…

Polymer-stabilized ferroelectric liquid crystals (PSFLCs), in which a photocurable mesogenic monomer is doped into a ferroelectric liquid crystal and a UV photocure is carried out in the SmC* phase under the application of a bipolar AC electric field, show the monostable V-shaped electrooptical characteristics. In thi…

Transition properties of a homologous series of novel S-shaped oligomers on varying the spacer length, core structure and linking group were investigated. All the S-shaped oligomers showed a nematic (N) phase on cooling. Formation of the N phase is interpreted in terms of the length to diameter (L/D) ratio, indicating…
