Single-Photon, Time-Gated, Phasor-Based Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging through Highly Scattering Medium

Edoardo Charbon, Claudio Bruschini, Arin Can Ülkü

Fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLI) is increasingly recognized as a powerful tool for biochemical and cellular investigations, including in vivo applications. Fluorescence lifetime is an intrinsic characteristic of any fluorescent dye which, to a large ext ...

Push-pull dioxaborine as fluorescent molecular rotor: far-red fluorogenic probe for ligand-receptor interactions

Fluorescent solvatochromic dyes and molecular rotors have attracted considerable attention as fluorogenic probes because of background-free detection of biomolecules in live cells in no-wash conditions. Herein, we introduce a push-pull boron-containing (di ...

Multimodel Approach to the Optical Properties of Molecular Dyes in Solution

Iurii Timrov

We introduce a multimodel approach to the simulation of the optical properties of molecular dyes in solution, whereby the effects of thermal fluctuations and of dielectric screening on the absorption spectra are accounted for by explicit and implicit solva ...

Photophysics and Photochemistry of a DNA–Protein Cross-Linking Model: A Synergistic Approach Combining Experiments and Theory

Ursula Röthlisberger, Ivano Tavernelli, Sara Bonella, Mohammadhassan Valadan

The photophysical and photochemical properties of 5-benzyluracil and 5,6-benzyluracil, the latter produced by photocyclization of the former through irradiation with femtosecond UV laser pulses, are investigated both experimentally and theoretically. The a ...

Ultraviolet transient absorption, transient grating and photon echo studies of aqueous tryptophan

Majed Chergui, Andrea Cannizzo, Cristina Consani

We compare UV transient grating (TG) experiments of aqueous tryptophan with transient absorption (TA) and fluorescence up-conversion measurements. The TG and TA signals show a bi-exponential rise with sub-ps and ps time constants, which are consistent with ...

Hydrophobicity with atomic resolution: Steady-state and ultrafast X-ray absorption and molecular dynamics studies

Majed Chergui, Ivano Tavernelli, Thomas James Penfold

Static and time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is used to probe the solvent shell structure around iodide and iodine. In particular, we characterize the changes ob served upon electron abstraction of aqueous iodide, which reflects the transit ...

A femtosecond fluorescence study of vibrational relaxation and cooling dynamics of UV dyes

Majed Chergui, Andrea Cannizzo, Thomas James Penfold

We present a femtosecond broad-band fluorescence up-conversion study of the vibrational relaxation dynamics of two UV chromophores, 2,5-diphenyloxazole (PPO) and para-terphenyl (pTP), pumped with a large excess of vibrational energy (>2000 cm(-1)). The ban ...

Development of Ultraviolet Photon Echo Experiments for the Study of Molecular Dynamics in Solution

This thesis work concerns the development and applications of ultrafast optical techniques and in particular photon echo in the UV range (< 300 nm). Development of these techniques in the UV range is important for studying molecular dynamics in solution, s ...

Ultrafast Visible and Ultraviolet Fluorescence Studies of Molecular and Biological Sytems in Solution

Olivier Christian Bräm

A wide variety of physical and chemical processes at the molecular level, as charge or energy transfer, solvation, electronic as well as vibrational relaxation, is at the origin of the biological functionality of proteins. The work reported in this thesis ...
