Dynamic dark state depletion a path to high sensitivity imaging

Photophysical characterization of several species of fluorescent silver nanoclusters, encapsulated in oligonucleotide scaffolds, was achieved at the bulk and single molecule level. These studies reveal the presence of a short-lived microsecond blinking component which leads to higher emission rates...
