Optical imaging represents one of the most essential tools in biological studies. Although
with great advances, bio-optical imaging still suffers from problems such as resolution …

Resonance energy transfer (RET), the transport of electronic energy from one atom or
molecule to another, has significant importance to a number of diverse areas of science …

The stimulus‐responsive room temperature phosphorescent (RTP) materials have endowed
wide potential applications. In this work, by introducing naphthalene and spiropyran (SP) …

Light-responsive polymers, especially photochromic ones, are among the most interesting
classes of stimuli-responsive materials. Photochromic polymers can show different stimuli …

DNA nanotechnology has now enabled the self-assembly of almost any prescribed 3-
dimensional nanoscale structure in large numbers and with high fidelity. These structures …

In this study, we overview resonance energy transfer between molecules in the presence of
plasmonic structures and derive an explicit Förster-type expression for the rate of plasmon …

Resonant dielectric nanoparticles made of materials with large positive dielectric permittivity,
such as Si, GaP, GaAs, have become a powerful platform for modern light science, enabling …

Plasmonic nanocavities are able to engineer and confine electromagnetic fields to
subwavelength volumes. In the past decade, they have enabled a large set of applications …

Many treatments of energy transfer (ET) phenomena in current literature employ incorrect
arguments and formulae and are not quantitative enough. This is unfortunate because we …

Single-molecule spectroscopy is a powerful method for studying the physics of molecular
systems, particularly biomolecules, such as proteins and nucleic acids. By avoiding …
