Enhancing tetraphenylethene cyclization as photoswitch
Tetraphenylethene (TPE), a star building block with promising aggregation‐induced emission, has received much interest. Given that its intramolecular Woodward‐Hoffmann cyclic intermediate instantaneously converts back to the original state within several

Ring closing reaction in diarylethene captured by femtosecond electron crystallography [PDF]
The photoinduced ring-closing reaction in diarylethene, which serves as a model system for understanding reactive crossings through conical intersections, was directly observed with atomic resolution using femtosecond electron diffraction.

Mapping Atomic Motions with Electrons: Toward the Quantum Limit to Imaging Chemistry [PDF]
Recent advances in ultrafast electron and X-ray diffraction have pushed imaging of structural dynamics into the femtosecond time domain, that is, the fundamental time scale of atomic motion.

Organic nanoparticulate photochromes [PDF]
Photochromic organic dyes can be widely used in materials for optically rewritable data storage, photonic switches, memories, sensors, or actuators. In recent years photochromic materials based on nanoparticles became particularly focused, since they can

Predicting photoactivity in dithienylethene crystalline solids
This commentary discusses the design of stimuli-responsive materials, specifically, light-responsive dithienylethene-based compounds. Recent progress in predicting photoactivity using a combination of theory and crystal structure landscape experiments is
