Potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) single crystals doped with L-arginine (L-arg) amino acid (with a concentration of 0.3 to 1.4 wt. % in the solution) were grown onto a point seed by the temperature reduction method. The ...

SiO₂ matrices with PM1, PM2 and PM3 polymethine dyes are synthesized. The dyes PM2 and PM3 are found to form H-aggregates and dimers, respectively, in aqueous solutions. PM1 dye forms neither H-aggregates nor dimmers due ...
