Abstract
Fluorescence excitation spectra of small and dilute samples of solid s olutions at helium temperatures show the spectrally resolved lines of single solute molecules. The signal-to-noise ratio is sufficient for s everal spectroscopic and time-correlated experiments, which are briefl y reviewed here. In particular, paramagnetic resonance within the trip let manifold was demonstrated recently for single pentacene molecules in a p-terphenyl crystal.
