Acknowledgments

I am very pleased to thank all those who have contributed to these developments; first of all, my collaborators, P. Baroni and H. Mendil. Second the chemists, who helped and taught me a lot on the mystery of the synthesis; G. Kirsch (Metz University) and S. Lecommandoux (ENSCPB – Bordeaux). I am also extremely grateful to P.D. Olmsted (University of Leeds), H. Brand (University of Bayreuth), P.G. de Gennes (Curie Institute), P. Martinoty (ULP – Strasbourg) for numerous and fruitful scientific discussions.
