The light of the sun - the source of life and a god in ancient times - was always associated with warmth or even burning heat. When man learnt to tame fire, he had another source of light, which was also hot. All the more puzzling for the amazed observer has been the dance of fireflies glimmering in the dark. How can an animal emit light? Or what about the faint glow of walls in some pre­ historic tombs due to luminescent bacteria? This sort of "cold light" is known today as chemiluminescence. A related phenomenon is the aurora borealis with its swiftly moving curtains oflight. This is a special sort of electroluminescence, of "cold light". another kind The basis of "hot light" is the thermal generation of electronically excited states (normally of atoms or ions). The source of "cold light", on the other hand, is the chemical or electrochemical generation of excited states, possible also for larger molecules. By using light instead of chemical or electrical energy, we can generate yet another type of "cold light", the ordinary luminescence: fluo­ rescence or phosphorescence. The possibilities here have increased enormously because we can color-tune the exciting light and gain specificity, and we can modulate it in time or even in polarization opening new dimensions of research and applications.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

This interdisciplinary book gives a comprehensive survey of the state-of-the-art and on trends in fluorescence techniques in science, medicine and engineering. The main chapters contain extended reviews which are supplemented by more specialized papers describing details and applications. The volume is intended for practitioners applying this technique in their routine work and for researchers in industry and academia, both groups being active in areas such as environmental monitoring, neuro and cell biology, molecular medicine, including gene research, microscopy and immuno-assays, physics, material science or chemsitry. Breathtaking new methods like ultra-fast time-resolved or single molecule spectroscopy and correlation techniques, fluorescence probes, or imaging techniques and their applications in the fields of electroluminescent polymers, visualization of membrane potentials in neurons or fluorescence imaging of the brain are described by internationally renowned authors.
