Strong plasmonic enhancement of single molecule photostability in silver dimer optical antennas

Strong plasmonic enhancement of single molecule photostability in silver dimer optical antennas

Photobleaching is an effect terminating the photon output of fluorophores, limiting the duration of fluorescence-based experiments. Plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) can increase the overall fluorophore photostability through an enhancement of the radiative rate. In this work, we use the DNA origami tec...
