TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a former anatectic melt can be preserved as tiny (<25 μm) droplets within refractory minerals, in this case garnet.

TL;DR: In this paper, the first examples of heterocycle-based multi-branched dyes with efficient two-photon absorption (TPA) activity are reported; the novel chromophores exhibit large TPA cross sections (as high as 1600 × 10−50 cm4 s photon−1 molecule−1, measured with 150 fs laser pulses at 800 nm).

TL;DR: In this paper, the immiscible graphitic metapelites of El Hoyazo and Mazarron (Spain) have been studied by micro-thermometry, micro-Raman spectroscopy and EMP analysis.

TL;DR: It is discovered that it is possible to photomodulate the chiroptical properties of the polymer films by irradiating with circularly polarised light, and the observed effect seems to open new possibilities for the use of azobenzene-containing materials as chiroPTical switches.

TL;DR: In this paper, a spin-coated poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) film with 4 wt% of the ionic second order NLO chromophore (DAST), obtained by spincoating of CHCl3-CH3OH (2/1) solutions, showed in situ growth of homogeneously dispersed oriented nanocrystals with sizes of less than 100 nm, as supported by TEM and GIXRD evidence.
