▪ Abstract Recent years have witnessed a renaissance of fluorescence microscopy
techniques and applications, from live-animal multiphoton confocal microscopy to single …

The minimum-bias multiplicity distribution and the transverse momentum and pseudorapidity
distributions for central collisions have been measured for negative hadrons (h−) in Au+ Au …

The combination of biology and nanotechnology has led to a new generation of
nanodevices that make it possible to characterize the chemical, mechanical, and other …

Individual multichromophoric dendrimer molecules, bearing eight perylenecarboximide
chromophores at the rim, immobilized in a thin polyvinylbutyral (PVB) film were studied by …

We demonstrate measurements of the efficiency of competing Förster-type energy-transfer
pathways in single bichromophoric systems by monitoring simultaneously the fluorescence …

Single-molecule spectroscopy was used to follow the orientation of a single probe molecule
in a polymer film in real time. Broad spatially heterogeneous dynamics were observed on …

Selective two-photon excitation of fluorescent probe molecules using phase-only modulated
ultrashort 15-fs laser pulses is demonstrated. The spectral phase required to achieve the …

We observe spectral and intensity fluctuations in Raman scattering from single molecules of
4-mercaptopyridine (4-Mpy) adsorbed on textured silver surfaces. We present evidence that …

Real-time single-molecule fluorescence detection using confocal and near-field scanning
optical microscopy has been applied to elucidate the nature of the “on–off” blinking …

Fluorescence blinking corresponding to collective quenching of up to 100 dye monomers is
reported for individual J-aggregates of a perylene bisimide (PBI) dye. This implies an exciton …
