Tailoring Liquid Crystalline Self‐Assembly and Photophysical Properties of Unsymmetrical Fluorenones via Polar Terminal Groups

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Novel liquid crystalline fluorenones bearing various head groups were synthesized and characterized. By alteration of the head group, N, SmC, or SmA phases were obtained, and emission properties could be tuned depending on solvent or temperature. ABSTRACT In this work, a series of novel unsymmetrical fluorenone derivatives bearing various head groups ...

Bolapolyphiles With Bulky Carbosilane‐Based Lateral Groups—Reticular Design of Liquid Crystalline Pentagonal Honeycombs

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
T‐shaped bolapolyphiles with highly branched carbosilane‐based side‐groups self‐assemble into liquid crystalline honeycombs composed of type‐2 pentagonal prismatic cells and p2gg plane group symmetry. ABSTRACT Periodic pentagon tessellations are rarely observed in self‐assembled molecular systems.

Chiral Dipicolinamide‐Based Push–Pull π‐Conjugated Systems as Nonreciprocal Circularly Polarized Luminescence Emitters

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
This work presents the synthesis and characterization of chiral dipicolinamide push–pull fluorophores. While possessing similar photophysical properties in solution, their solvent‐annealed thin films exhibit unexpected, nonreciprocal chiroptical activity in both absorption and emission, including a complete inversion of the chiroptical profile upon ...

Fhod3 in zebrafish supports myofibril stability during growth of embryonic skeletal muscle

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Actin filament organization in cardiomyocytes critically depends on the formin Fhod3, but a role for Fhod3 in skeletal muscle development has not yet been described. Results We demonstrate here that in zebrafish mutated for one of two fhod3 paralog genes, fhod3a, skeletal muscle of the trunk appears normal through 2 days post ...

A shining starlet: Nematostella vectensis as a model for developmental, regenerative, and comparative biology

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract The sea anemone, Nematostella vectensis, has been used as a model organism in developmental biology studies for many years. This estuarine species has the notable capacity to regenerate its full body plan from small pieces throughout life. Nematostella have been described as having a great degree of cellular plasticity.

High Birefringence And Wide Nematic Range Liquid Crystal Mixtures

open access: yes, 2004
Isothiocyanato tolane liquid crystals exhibit a high birefringence and relatively low viscosity. The phase transition temperatures, birefringence and visco-elastic coefficient of several high birefringence isothiocyanato tolane compounds are evaluated ...

An Excellent Deep‐Ultraviolet Nonlinear Optical Crystal Realized via a Functional Group Based on a Two‐in‐One Strategy

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A “two‐in‐one” design strategy integrating guanidinium and carboxyl functional groups was developed to overcome the intrinsic trade‐off among SHG response, ultraviolet cutoff edge, and birefringence in DUV NLO crystals. Benefiting from non‐π‐conjugated electronic isolation, Zn‐GPA(II) simultaneously achieves a strong SHG response (2.1 × KH2PO4), an ...
