Coherent Nonlinear Single Molecule Microscopy
Ilja Gerhardt, Gert Wrigge, Jaseuk Hwang +2
We investigate a nonlinear localization microscopy method based on Rabi oscillations of single emitters. We demonstrate the fundamental working principle of this new technique usin…
Coherent State Preparation and Observation of Rabi Oscillations in a Single Molecule
Ilja Gerhardt, Gert Wrigge, Gert Zumofen +3
We report on the excitation of single molecules via narrow zero-phonon transitions using short laser pulses. By monitoring the Stokes-shifted fluorescence, we studied the excited s…
Exploring the limits of single emitter detection in fluorescence and extinction
Gert Wrigge, Jaesuk Hwang, Ilja Gerhardt +2
We present an experimental comparison and a theoretical analysis of the signal-to-noise ratios in fluorescence and extinction spectroscopy of a single emitter. We show that extinct…
Efficient coupling of photons to a single molecule and the observation of its resonance fluorescence
Gert Wrigge, Ilja Gerhardt, Jaesuk Hwang +2
Single dye molecules at cryogenic temperatures display many spectroscopic phenomena known from free atoms and are thus promising candidates for fundamental quantum optical studies.…
Strong extinction of a laser beam by a single molecule
I. Gerhardt, G. Wrigge, P. Bushev +3
We present an experiment where a single molecule strongly affects the amplitude and phase of a laser field emerging from a subwavelength aperture. We achieve a visibility of -6% in…
