X Abstract

Abstract: Providing previously obscured positional and orientational information, a novel wide-field optical microscope capable of visualizing three-dimensional orientational dynamics of individual room temperature molecules has been developed. Utilizing a single detector, this facile method enables simultaneous observation of all molecular orientations without polarization optics. Such methods not only provide conclusive, nondestructive evidence of single molecule observation, but will also make single molecule orientational studies accessible to a wide range of researchers. Analysis of observed molecular emission patterns not only directly and noninvasively reveals true 3-D orientational dynamics of individual molecules, but also demonstrates that perceived molecular position is strongly dependent on orientation.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
