Conspectus Fluorescence microscopy and detection have become indispensible for
understanding organization and dynamics in biological systems. Novel fluorophores with …

Living cells are chemical mixtures of exceptional interest and significance, whose
investigation requires the development of powerful analytical tools fulfilling the demanding …

Non‐invasive separation‐free protocols are attractive for analyzing complex mixtures. To
increase selectivity, an analysis under kinetic control, through exploitation of the …

In this work, we present a new analytical approach to model continuous wave laser induced
temperature in highly homogeneous turbid media. First, the diffusion equation is used to …

Cyanine dyes are well-known for their bright fluorescence and utility in biological imaging.
However, cyanines also readily photoisomerize to produce nonemissive dark states. Co …

In molecular and cellular photoacoustic imaging with exogenous contrast agents, image
contrast is plagued by background resulting from endogenous absorbers in tissue. By using …

Fluorescence from the xanthene dyes rose bengal, erythrosine B, eosin Y, and fluorescein is
modulated by reversibly optically populating and depopulating their long-lived triplet states …

Excitation of few-atom Ag cluster fluorescence produces significant steady-state dark state
populations that can be dynamically optically depopulated with long wavelength …

Eliminating the contribution of interfering compounds is a key step in chemical analysis. In
complex media, one possible approach is to perform a preliminary separation. However …

Merocyanine 540 fluorescence can be enhanced by optically depopulating dark
photoisomer states to regenerate the fluorescence-generating manifold of the all-trans …
