Our protocol shows that the graphene-based quantum dots can be distributed in a maximally entangled state through the interaction with single photons. In our proposed scheme, the setups are simplified as only single-photon detection is required. This provides a fast, all-optical manipulation of on-chip qubits,which gives an effective way for quantum information processing in graphene-based solid qubits.展开更多

Here we summarize the recent advances of single nucleic acid imaging based on optical observation and force manipulation. We start by discussing the superiority of single molecule image, the central roles nucleic acids play in biosystems, and the significance of single molecule image towards nucleic acids. We then list a series of representative examples in brief to illustrate how nucleic acid of various morphologies has been imaged from different aspects, and what can be learned from such characterizations.

A blue shift in π-π absorption band of ortho-alkylated azobenzenes (1o and 2o) was observed together with a reduction in molar extinction coefficient (e) in comparison with both meta-alkylated azobenzenes (4m and 5m) and 7p lacking the meta and ortho substituents. For orthoalkylated azobenzene, photochemical trans-to-cis isomerization and thermal back cis-to-trans isomerization in solution oc- curred slowly when compared with 4m, 5m and 7p. The half-life time of the cis form of 20 was found to be 380 h, which is about 8-50 times longer than those of comparable 4m, 5m (43-13 h) and 7p (7 h). Furthermore, comparison of the molecular structure and isomerization characteristics of azobenzene thiol (20 and 5m) self-assembled monolayers on flat gold surfaces indicates that the trans-to-cis photoconversion in monolayer systems is influenced by steric hindrance and strong intermoleculax interaction between azobenzene units.展开更多
