Since the seminal report by Adachi and co-workers in 2012, there has been a veritable explosion of interest in the design of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) compounds, particularly as emitters for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). With rapid advancements and innovation in materials design, the efficiencies of TADF OLEDs for each of the primary color points as well as for white devices now rival those of state-of-the-art phosphorescent emitters. Beyond electroluminescent devices, TADF compounds have also found increasing utility and applications in numerous related fields, from photocatalysis, to sensing, to imaging and beyond.

The total number of gene copies is variable, and the mechanisms buffering this copy number variation remain unresolved. We surveyed the number, distribution, and activity of rDNA arrays at the level of individual chromosomes across multiple human and primate genomes.

This approach, which reduces computational post-processing and eliminates unnecessary interpolation or duplication of the data, is demonstrated on an upright variant of axially swept light-sheet microscopy (ASLM) that achieves a field of view, measuring 774 × 435 microns, that is 3.2-fold larger than previous models and a raw and isotropic resolution of ∼460 nm.
