wassaaa: "A single chlorophyll-a molecule is switched into four different conformations by injecting tunneling electrons from a STM-tip. Just a single tunneling electron energy transfer to the molecule causes the conformation change. The molecule requires 0.8 eV energy for each switching event on Au(111) surface. We inject up to 1.5 eV energy tunneling electrons during this switching experiment."

est: "Whether Cuban or Puerto Rican, "they all are very hot," the governor says on the recording. "They have the, you know, part of the black blood in them and part of the Latino blood in them that together makes it.""
