Chromophore equilibria in bacteriorhodopsin
Biophysical Journal, 1979 An investigation of the dark equilibria between different chromophores of bacteriorhodopsin (BR) and studies of the kinetics of their interconversion and photochemical activity have led to the following conclusions. (a) A component of the 605-nm chromophore of BR decays in the millisecond range and is likely to be identical to the intermediate O of the

Stimuli‐Responsive Chemical Systems That Mimic Biological Dynamics
Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 32, Issue 1, 2 January 2026.Chemists are designing synthetic systems that mimic life's dynamic behaviors, such as motion, sensing, adaptation, and compartmentalization, by integrating reaction networks with stimuli like light, pH, and chemical fuels. This mini‐review surveys molecular machines, responsive materials, nucleic acid networks, and artificial cells, highlighting how ...

Interferometry of hyper-Rayleigh scattering by inhomogeneous thin films [PDF]
, 1999 The use of specific symmetry properties of the optical second-harmonic generation (the s,s-exclusion rule) has allowed us to observe high-contrast hyper-Rayleigh interference patterns in a completely diffuse light - an effect having no analog in case of ...

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 2, 8 January 2026.A Janus‐engineered nanoplatform (J‐pHLIP‐PD1), featuring separate tumor‐ and immune‐targeting faces, bridges melanoma cells and cytotoxic T lymphocytes using toposelective pHLIP and anti‐PD‐1 presentation. This strategy elicits robust antitumor responses, promotes immunogenic tumor cell death, suppresses lung metastasis in vivo, and provides a modular,
