Rather than polymer chains and ultrasound, Boulatov and co-workers used stiff stilbene, a U-shaped molecule that changes shape when exposed to light of certain wavelengths. The molecule of ...

The final setup uses the UV laser to pump a stilbene dye laser, which shoots a powerful pulse of 426 nanometer light into about 200 meters of fiber, and produces a gorgeous supercontinuum ...

Using ultrafast Raman spectroscopy and ab initio molecular dynamics simulations, Tahei Tahara and colleagues now characterize the common, perpendicular intermediate of stilbene photoisomerization ...

The global Fluorescent Brightening Agents (FBA) market share is witnessing significant expansion, with projections indicating ...

The main products are various types of stilbene derivatives, optical brighteners for textiles/paper/detergent industries, naphthol grounders for pigments and intermediates for pigment red 170.

One solution could be to tag recycled plastics with the fluorescent molecule 4,4,-bis(2-benzoxazolyl)stilbene (BBS), and then track the tagged recycled feedstocks into their resulting products. BBS’s ...

Estrogen agonists/antagonists are compounds with tissue-selective actions. The pharmacological goal of these compounds is to produce beneficial estrogenic actions in certain tissues (e.g., bone ...
