Single molecule detection and photochemistry on a surface using near-field optical excitation
We report the first photobleaching experiments of single molecules on a surface. Single molecules of rhodamine 6G are detected on a silica surface under ambient conditions using...
Alterations of Single Molecule Fluorescence Lifetimes in Near-Field Optical Microscopy
Fluorescence lifetimes of single Rhodamine 6G molecules on silica surfaces were measured with pulsed laser excitation, time-correlated single photon counting, and near-field sca...
Single Molecules Observed by Near-Field Scanning Optical Microscopy
Individual carbocyanine dye molecules in a sub-monolayer spread have been imaged with near-field scanning optical microscopy. Molecules can be repeatedly detected and spatially ...
Optical antenna: Towards a unity efficiency near-field optical probe
We demonstrate that an antenna can be used to realize a near-field optical probe that combines spatial resolution well below the diffraction limit with transmission efficiency a...
Electromagnetic energy transport via linear chains of silver nanoparticles
We propose the idea of a subwavelength-sized light guide represented by a linear chain of spherical metal nanoparticles in which light is transmitted by electrodynamic interpart...
