摘要
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 demonstrated with the parallel recording of peak-frequency trajectories for 62 terrylene-molecules in n-hexadecane and with the measurement of 918 single molecule linewidths for terrylene in dodecane in 200 s.
