FR : Un cube massif aux parois translucides se dresse dans un espace sombre, traversé par une ligne de lumière horizontale. Les reflets froids et les surfaces vitrées composent une structure énigmatique, comme un horizon enfermé dans le verre. EN : A massive translucent cube stands in a dark space, crossed by a bright horizontal line of light. Cold reflections and glasslike surfaces form an enigmatic structure, like an horizon sealed inside the glass.

The Horizon Locked Inside the Glass.

Research paper promotional graphic with a brickwork background showing the 3D structure of CSD refcode FURCUU.

In this new @pubs.acs.org Crystal Growth & Design article, researchers modify acenes by introducing methylthio groups at the end positions, causing a brickwork structure — one of the more promising #CrystalStructures of organic #SemiConductors for use in electronic devices.
