The front cover features work form Tatsuo Arai and co-workers from the Graduate School of Pure and Applied Sciences, University of Tsukuba, Japan.  Their paper investigates photoisomerization and energy transfer in naphthalene-terminated stilbene dentrimers.  They demonstrate photoisomerazion via highly efficient energy transfer from the dendron group to the core stilbene and that intramolecular energy transfer efficiency was controlled by trans-cis photoisomerization.
