Advances in imaging techniques now make it feasible to do things that were not previously
possible. Experiments in which interacting proteins are observed inside living cells are now …

The miniaturization of components used in the construction of working devices is being
pursued currently by the large‐downward (top‐down) fabrication. This approach, however …

The success of fluorescence experiments requires attention to experimental details and an
understanding of the instrumentation. There are also many potential artifacts that can distort …

The integration of organic and inorganic materials at the nanometre scale into hybrid
optoelectronic structures enables active devices,, that combine the diversity of organic …

It sometimes remains unclear when looking at a discipline why a particular problem has in
the past raised so much trouble and concern. Recalling the fierce debates on the usefulness …

Optical spectroscopy at the ultimate limit of a single molecule has grown over the past dozen
years into a powerful technique for exploring the individual nanoscale behavior of molecules …

An understanding of electron-initiated processes in aqueous systems and the subsequent
radical chemistry these processes induce is significant in such diverse fields as waste …

Fluorescent resonance energy transfer (FRET) is a powerful technique for studying
conformational distribution and dynamics of biological molecules. Some conformational …

We review the syntheses, optical properties, and biological applications of cadmium
selenide (CdSe) and cadmium selenide–zinc sulfide (CdSe–ZnS) quantum dots (QDs) and …

Interactions between a single emitter and cavity provide the archetypical system for
fundamental quantum electrodynamics. Here we show that a single molecule of Atto647 …
