Single-molecule optics with atomic precision
MPI for Solid State Research Stuttgart
Luminescence, photosynthesis, and energy harvesting rely on processes originating at the spatial scale of individual molecules. Investigating the details of these mechanisms requires reaching subnm precision in optics, which becomes possible by combining optical spectroscopy with scanning
probe microscopy. In my talk, I will discuss how atomic-scale optics can be used to study the optical properties of single molecules and to drive photochemistry with sub-nm precision.
