Single Molecule Spectroscopy: Basics and Applications

Abstract

A review on the actual state of the art of single mol. fluorescence spectroscopy. It also presents a few selected applications. The scope of the discussion is restricted to fluorescence single mol. spectroscopy in liqs. and on surfaces under ambient conditions, thus neglecting the broad research done on low-temp. spectroscopy, and on at. force and scanning tunneling microscopy of single mols.
