Rylene imide dyes have been among the most promising organic semiconducting materials
for several years due to their remarkable optoelectronic properties and high …

Perylene diimides are among the most important chromophores in dyestuff chemistry. They
do not only have excellent thermal, chemical and photochemical stability, high absorption …

We report a peptide-based multichromophoric hydrogelator system, wherein π-electron units
with different inherent spectral energies are spatially controlled within peptidic 1-D …

Measurements of photon temporal correlations have been the mainstay of experiments in
quantum optics. Over the past several decades, advancements in detector technologies …

The particle-like nature of light becomes evident in the photon statistics of fluorescence from
single quantum systems as photon antibunching. In multichromophoric systems, exciton …

An appealing definition of the term “molecule” arises from consideration of the nature of
fluorescence, with discrete molecular entities emitting a stream of single photons. We …

When closely packed into a high-density film, semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) can interact
with each other to yield collective optical behaviours, which are normally difficult to …

Even though the quantized interaction between light and matter in the photoelectric effect is
considered one of the cornerstones in the development of quantum mechanics, it was long …

Single molecule fluorescence spectroscopy (SMFS) opened an important pathway for
studying properties of individual quantum systems under ambient conditions. One such …

Fluorescent proteins (FPs) have revolutionized cell biology by allowing genetic tagging of
specific proteins inside living cells. In conjunction with Förster's resonance energy transfer …
