Femtosecond fluorescence up-conversion spectroscopy of a rotation-restricted azobenzene after excitation to the S1state

Femtosecond fluorescence dynamics imaging using a fluorescence up-conversion microscope.

Femtosecond fluorescence dynamics imaging microscopy was performed. Femtosecond fluorescence dynamics images were constructed based on the "mean" fluorescence decay or rise time constants that were evaluated by the time-resolved intensity sampling using a fluorescence up-conversion microscope. This dynamics imaging microscopy was carried out for the organic microcrystals alpha-perylene and tetr...

from linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar

chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...

Two-photon fluorescence excitation spectroscopy by pulse shaping ultrabroad-bandwidth femtosecond laser pulses.

A fast and automated approach to measuring two-photon fluorescence excitation (TPE) spectra of fluorophores with high resolution (~2 nm) by pulse shaping ultrabroad-bandwidth femtosecond laser pulses is demonstrated. Selective excitation in the range of 675-990 nm was achieved by imposing a series of specially designed phase and amplitude masks on the excitation pulses using a pulse shaper. The...

Xanthines Studied via Femtosecond Fluorescence Spectroscopy.

Xanthines represent a wide class of compounds closely related to the DNA bases adenine and guanine. Ubiquitous in the human body, they are capable of replacing natural bases in double helices and give rise to four-stranded structures. Although the use of their fluorescence for analytical purposes was proposed, their fluorescence properties have not been properly characterized so far. The presen...
