Abstract
Fluorescence excitation spectra of small and dilute samples show the s pectrally resolved lines of single solute molecules. The narrow lines can be used as probes of the low-temperature motion of the matrix arou nd the molecule, or as probes of intramolecular transitions between el ectronic levels. In particular, electron spin resonance of a single mo lecule can be observed.
