Research Abstract |
We performed the evaluation and control of fluorescence characteristics of a single fluorescence emitter under various ambient- and electromagnetic-controlled conditions. We also developed a time-correlated single photon counting system with modified photomultiplier tubes as photon detectors as well as a new microscope light collection unit having an immersion objective with high numerical aperture and ionic liquid used as a refractive index matching medium. The results achieved in the present study provide us with a wide range of applications for nano-bio sensing and fabrication of optical devices.
