Effect of lattice-mismatch-induced strain on Γ-, X- and L-conduction-band edges in III-V self-assembled quantum dots has been calculated. The misfit strain is shown to strongly affect the band edges, leading to a possibility of Γ-L and Γ-X crossover....

Photoalignment used to control the orientation of nematic liquid crystals in LCDs usually involves the photochemical modification of the chemical structure of an organic thin film so that an optical and/or steric anisotropy is developed. We now demon... Read More about A new approach to photoalignment: photo-addition to a self-assembled monolayer.

The specific rotation of (S)-4-isopropyl-oxazolidin-2-one is extremely solvent dependent. In chloroform it is dextrorotatory {[α] D 26 = + 15.5 (c 5.2, CHCl 3 )}, whereas in ethanol it is levorotatory {[α] D 26 = - 16.1 (c 5.2, EtOH)}. © 2008 Elsevie...
