Tuning Low-Lying Excited States and Optical Properties in IndenoFluorene Diradicaloids and Longitudinally Extended Derivatives: A Computational Perspective by Michele Orza, Andrea Zerbini, Fabrizia Negri

“…In this work, we have considered the family of indenofluorene (IF) and its longitudinally elongated variants fluorenofluorene and diindenoanthracene and investigated their low-lying excited states and optical properties via quantum-chemical studies at the density functional theory (DFT) level. Singlet ground-state diradicals exhibit distinct optical properties due to the presence of a low-lying state dominated by a doubly excited configuration (DE state), often below the lowest allowed singly excited state (SE state). …”

Vibrotactile speech cues are associated with enhanced auditory processing in middle and superior temporal gyri by Alina Schulte, Jeremy Marozeau, Andrej Kral, Hamish Innes-Brown

“…While behavioral benefits of audio-tactile enhancements in speech understanding have been repeatedly demonstrated, the impact of vibrotactile cues on cortical auditory speech processing remains unknown. Using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) with a dense montage setup, we first identified a region-of-interest highly sensitive to auditory-only speech-in-quiet. …”
