Small-molecule fluorophores are important tools for advanced imaging experiments. We
previously reported a general method to improve small, cell-permeable fluorophores which …

Isomorphous metal−organic frameworks (MOFs) based on {M[4,4′-(HO 2 C) 2 -bpy] 2 bpy}
2+ building blocks (where M = Ru or Os) were designed and synthesized to study the classic …

We have developed a pump–probe microscope capable of exciting a single semiconductor
nanostructure in one location and probing it in another with both high spatial and temporal …

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are appealing candidates for use in energy harvesting
and concentrating because of their high chromophore density and structural tunability. The …

We used femtosecond transient absorption (TA) spectroscopy to examine the excited state
dynamics of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) bundles embedded in polymer matrices. …

Pump–probe transient absorption microscopy was used to follow the electron–hole (e–h)
recombination dynamics at different points within individual needle-shaped ZnO rods to …

Femtosecond pump–probe microscopy is used to investigate the charge recombination
dynamics at different points within a single needle-shaped ZnO rod. Recombination in the tips of …

Excited-state proton-transfer dynamics between 7-hydroxy-4-(trifluoromethyl)coumarin and 1-methylimidazole
base in toluene were studied using ultrafast pump–probe and time-…

Images of second harmonic generation (SHG) in needle-shaped ZnO rods obtained from
individual structures show areas of enhanced second harmonic intensity along the longitudinal …

Zinc oxide has emerged as an attractive candidate for a variety of optoelectronic and photonic
applications, due in part to a large second-order nonlinear susceptibility, its wide band gap…
