The combination of an organic dye with clays leads to very interesting hybrid materials with original properties. It is found that LAPONITE® nanoparticles have an impact on the photophysical properties of the crystal violet dye inducing a kinetic stabilization of its excited emissive state, turning this nonemissive dye into a fluorescent compound.

Department of Prosthodontics, Indiana University School of Dentistry, Indianapolis, Indiana, USA.
Purpose: To assess the impact of anodization and instrumentation on titanium abutment surface characteristics (surface roughness and wettability) and biofilm formation (viability and mass).
Materials And Methods: Titanium discs were obtained from pre-milled abutment blanks made of titanium-6aluminum-7niobium alloy. Polished samples were divided into three groups: un-anodized, gold-anodized, and pink-anodized.
Efficacy of Magnifying Texture and Color Enhancement Imaging With Indigo Carmine as an Alternative to Crystal Violet for Colorectal Tumors.

Background: Pit pattern diagnosis using crystal violet staining for colorectal tumors is useful for qualitative and depth diagnosis. However, due to its reported carcinogenic potential, the use of crystal violet has been restricted. This study was aimed at investigating the efficacy of texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI) magnification in pit pattern diagnosis.

Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a highly sensitive analytical technique with excellent molecular specificity. However, separate pristine nanoparticles produce relatively weak Raman signals. It is necessary to focus on increasing the "hot-spot" density generated at the nanogaps between the adjacent nanoparticles (second-generation SERS hotspot), thus significantly boosting the Raman signal by creating an electromagnetic field.

The generation of interlayer charge transfer excitons upon photoexcitation is strongly desirable for two-dimensional (2D) materials stacked through van der Waals interactions. In this work, we investigate photoinduced charge transfer in silicanes (SiH) with three typical stackings. A concept of the regional natural hole orbital and its conjugated particle orbital is developed to characterize excited states in solids.
