Abstract
Fluorescence microscopy has been adapted to cryogenic temperatures and combined with efficient image processing and analysis to observe many single molecules in parallel. The capabilities of this setup are demo nstrated with the parallel recording of peak-frequency trajectories fo r 62 terrylene-molecules in n-hexadecane and with the measurement of 9 18 single molecule linewidths for terrylene in dodecane in 200 s.
