The relative brightness of photoelectron microscopy images as a function of exposure to UV light has been determined from model systems representative of biological cell surface components. Quantitative data for amino acid homopolymers, yields. The photoelectron quantum yields, increase substantially

Novel carbon nanotube-metal cluster structures are proposed as prototype systems for molecular recognition at the nanoscale. Ab initio calculations show that already the bare nanotube cluster system displays some specificity because the adsorption of ammonia on a carbon nanotube-Al cluster

The diboranes(4) bis(catecholato)diborane (B(2)Cat(2)) and bis(pinacolato)diborane (B(2)Pin(2)) are important precursors for organoboronic esters, which are versatile reagents for the formation of carbon-carbon bonds. A new catalytic synthesis for these compounds starts from catecholborane or pinacolborane and gives the dehydrocoupling products
