In this Review article, we systematically summarize the design and applications of various
kinds of long-lived emissive probes for bioimaging and biosensing via time-resolved …

The past decade has witnessed an explosion in the use of super-resolution fluorescence
microscopy methods in biology and other fields. Single-molecule localization microscopy …

The development of nonlinear optical (NLO) materials has been driven by a multitude of
important technological applications that can be realized if suitable materials are available …

Optical imaging and analysis of single molecules continue to unfold as powerful ways to
study the individual behavior of biological systems, unobscured by ensemble averaging …

We prepared silver particle dimers with single Cy5 molecules localized between coupled
metal particles. The silver particles with a 20 nm diameter were chemically bound with single …

Single-molecule methods have matured into powerful and popular tools to probe the
complex behaviour of biological molecules, due to their unique abilities to probe molecular …

A new fluorescent turn-on probe (3) for the selective sensing and bioimaging of thiols is
reported. In aqueous buffer solutions at physiological pH, thiols cleave the 2, 4 …

Research on nanomaterials has stimulated a lot of interest over the past decades due to
their unique properties and vast utilities in biological, medical, electronic, and optoelectronic …

The tuning of CdSe quantum dot (QDs) sizes, and consequently their corresponding two‐
photon absorption (TPA) cross section, has been systematically investigated. As the size …

We have reengineered a red-emitting dicyanomethylenedihydrofuran push− pull
fluorophore so that it is dark until photoactivated with a short burst of low-intensity violet light …
