Imaging and Time-Resolved Spectroscopy of Single Molecules at an Interface
Abstract
Far-field microscopy was used to noninvasively measure the room-temperature optical properties of single dye molecules located on a polymer-air interface. Shifts in the fluorescence spectrum, due to perturbation by the locally varying molecular environment, and the orientation of the transition dipole moment were correlated to variation in the excited-state lifetime. The lifetime dependence on spectral shift is argued to result from the frequency dependence of the spontaneous emission rate; the lifetime dependence on dipole orientation was found to be a consequence of the electromagnetic boundary conditions on the fluorescent radiation at the polymer-air interface.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
