Thiophene-based D-A-D π-conjugated systems containing triphenylamine end groups connected to a 1,1,4,4-tetracyanobuta-1,3-diene acceptor by oligothiophene chains of variable length have been synthesized. These compounds show interesting light-harvesting properties and low-lying HOMO levels. Preliminary results on bilayer heterojunction solar cells with C(60) as acceptor show power conversion efficiency higher than 1.0%.

    We introduce a concise new method that selectively sequences from the 5' end of mRNA and used it to identify TSS in four Drosophila species, including: D. melanogaster, D. simulans, D. sechellia, and D. pseudoobscura. To locate TSS and their associated promoters, we chose a threshold that removed 99...
