We report the observation of a strong two-photon induced fluorescence emission of Cy5-DNA within the tunable range of a Ti:Sapphire laser. The estimated two-photon cross-section for Cy5-DNA of 400GM is about 3.5-fold higher than it was reported for rhodamine B. The fundamental anisotropies of Cy5-DNA are close to the theoretical limits of 2/5 and 4/7 for one- and two-photon excitation, respectively. We also observed an enhanced two-photon induced fluorescence (TPIF) of Cy5-DNA deposited on silver island films (SIFs). In the presence of SIFs, the TPIF is about 100-fold brighter. The brightness increase of Cy5-DNA TPIF near SIFs is mostly due to enhanced local field.
我们报告了在钛宝石激光器的可调谐范围内观察到Cy5-DNA的强双光子诱导荧光发射。估计Cy5-DNA的双光子截面为400GM,比报道的罗丹明B的双光子截面高约3.5倍。Cy5-DNA的基态各向异性分别接近单光子和双光子激发的理论极限2/5和4/7。我们还观察到沉积在银岛膜(SIFs)上的Cy5-DNA的双光子诱导荧光(TPIF)增强。在存在SIFs的情况下,TPIF亮约100倍。SIFs附近Cy5-DNA的TPIF亮度增加主要是由于局部场增强。
