The luminescence photons emitted by one kind of excited atom, molecule, or phosphor can excite another to emit its specific luminescence: this type of energy transfer is observed with inorganic as well as organic substances.
Furthermore, the fiber laser at 1040 nm can excite intrinsic molecules (e.g., NADH, FAD) significantly closer to their 3P excitation peaks than 2P excitation at 800 nm [ 20].
In addition to detection of one target, several different-sized QD molecules can be excited by one excitation source simultaneously.
These concentrated and enhanced electromagnetic fields can excite fluorescent molecules with highly improved fluorescence efficiency.
In the presence of FITC, CL of luminol can excite FITC molecules, and thus produced CRET between the luminol and FITC.
When added into Au nanoparticles, localized electric fields can be produced, because Au can excite dye molecules more intensively than incident far-field light.
Figure 3(c) and Fig. 3 d) demonstrate that circularly polarized light can excite all amylopectin molecules in the starch granules.
A microwave oven generates microwave irradiation which can excite the reacting molecules mostly in its rotational energy levels.
As the mice traveled through the virtual contexts, the researchers peered into their brains, using a special type of microscope that can excite and image fluorescent molecules deep within tissues.
(142) Inelastic tunneling processes can excite vibrational modes in molecules that also contribute to rotational processes.
