Description
The image depicts a DNA dendrimer displaying multiple copies of sequential pendant dyes throughout its structure. The dyes harvest light energy and direct it to a central focus using a dense Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) network. Incorporation of extended homoFRET sections increases both the antenna gain and distance over which light can be propagated in this manner. This is reported by Igor L. Medintz and co‐workers in article number 1700679.
